+Please share:
I created a petition
on We the People, a new feature on WhiteHouse.gov, and ask for your
support. Will you please add your name to mine? If this petition gets
25,000 signatures by January 31, 2013, the White House will review it and respond!
We the People allows anyone to create and sign petitions asking the
Obama Administration to take action on a range of issues. If a petition
gets enough support, the Obama Administration will issue an official
response.
You can view and sign the petition here:

Here's some more information about this petition:
Disallow motorcycle-only roadblocks as a discriminatory and unconstitutional infringement on one's right of free travel.
Highway roadblocks diverting only motorcyclists from roadways to
conduct "safety checks" serve only to harass, intimidate and
inconvenience motorcyclists. Further, motorcycle-only roadblocks of
this nature are a discriminatory and unconstitutional infringement upon
an individual's right to travel without interference, and an abuse of
discretionary power. In the current economic and environmental climate,
to better promote motorcycles fitting into the long-term motoring
population as practical, efficient alternatives to automobiles and
trucks, professionals from local, state, federal and private agencies
involved in the effort to reduce deaths and injuries related to traffic
crashes, should redirect their combined efforts toward overall driver
education of the presence of motorcyclists.
Please read, sign, and share this petition seeking to end discriminatory and unconstitutional motorcycle-only roadblocks.
Thank you for your participation.
Ride on.
