If you go out for a ride, or to the store, do you check your brake light or signals or anything else when you get back on 5 or 10 min later before riding home again? Brake fluid, tire pressure, chain tension, the list goes on and on. Do you check these every time you get on and ride? I do check basics each time, as one should, but I don't think everyone checks everything there is to check, some of which are safety concerns but are not very likely to change every day.
I admit I knew about the rear brake pedal not activating the brake light, but since I was aware of this, to me this was not much of a safety problem compared to the issue of full face vs. 3/4 vs. no helmet at all. But I should have fixed it earlier, especially because I was aware of it. Procrastination is not good. So pick on me if you want, for procrastinating, not for being unsafe.
