been out of country a bit and im under the impression that people in the US just cant learn to drive cars properly with motorcyclist.

Lets forget the concept of the idiot biker for a second.

When im in traffic, i always give the biker the right of way and just that bit more room if he had to brake hard or falls of the bike.

I see that senario all over the place in Europe ^

But over here, it seems to me that if you see a bike, you have to get as close to it as possible, some people even get next to sport bikes just expecting stunting to compense.

I hate to say it but, i want a bike, but ive already realized im gonna have to ride it on deserted roads and avoid the interstate at all cost. I know that dosn't take the risk away 100% but atleast ill abeable to enjoy riding and have a higher chance of getting home.
