Automobile Drivers Urged to Start Seeing Motorcycles!!!
Chicagoland Law Tigers Urge Drivers to Start Seeing Motorcycles!!!
With temperatures rising in the Chicagoland area, more motorcycles and scooters are on the road, and the Chicagoland Law Tigers are urging automobile drivers to START SEEING MOTORCYCLE!!! According to the latest data available from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 103,000 motorcyclists were injured in 2007, up from 88,000 in 2006. In most cases, it’s not their fault!!!
Because of a motorcyclist’s size in relation to a car, many drivers fail to see motorcycles. Like all accidents, a number of different factors can be at large. Many times, however, accidents involving motorcycles are the fault of the automobile driver. Tim Kelly, a member of the American Association of Motorcycle Injury Lawyers and the Chicagoland Law Tigers affiliate office, sees this all too often. Kelly anticipates that, “as more and more motorcycles join drivers on the road, we could see a significant increase in serious accidents and/or deaths. Drivers must learn to respect motorcyclists and share the road.”
To Kelly, a Harley Davidson Night Train owner and motorcycle enthusiast, concern for fellow riders is a given. “We want to make people aware. We talk to injured riders on a daily basis. Law Tigers fight for riders after they’ve been hit, but we feel the best way to help riders is to try to do anything to prevent these crashes,” says Kelly.
They offer automobile drivers some recommendations that might save a life of a motorcyclist:
•Be aware when making left turns: Most motorcycle accidents occur at intersections, watch for motorcycle riders when making a left turn.
•Cell phones: Be aware that cell phone usage can distract from driving properly and pose a threat to everyone’s safety on the road.
•Blind spots: check blind spots at all times, as motorcyclists are often out of view when cars attempt to make lane changes.
•Weather: When the road is wet or icy, it makes it more difficult for motorcycles to brake and handle their bike, be respectful and give them some space.
•Obscured visibility: Large vehicles such as buses, trucks and vans can make a motorcyclist appear out of no where. Be aware of the driver’s view from the vehicle.
•Strong winds: Be prepared at all times for a strong gust of wind that can move a motorcyclist unexpectedly into a different lane. This is something that they can sometimes not control.
•Road Conditions: Potholes, obstructions and other items in the street aren’t always a serious concern for drivers, but can cause serious concerns to motorcyclists and may require lane changes or a decrease in speed. Give them as much or more room as a car may need.
•Parked Vehicles: Look for motorcyclists before you open a door, and tell other passengers to do the same.
“Most non-riders have no idea of the time and money that motorcyclists donate to helping others in their communities. The Law Tigers are dedicated to supporting them. It’s the least we can do when there’s so much out there working against riders. We want to level the playing field. We want to support our own,” said Kelly.
In 2007 the Law Tigers represented more than 700 clients nationwide, many accidents caused by the above factors. For more information about riding safe or to order the Law Tigers Free Biker Benefit Card, see the Law Tigers website at www.lawtigers.com. If you would like to get help with an incident or injury, or have questions and wish to speak with an attorney, please call the 24-hour line at 888-LAW-TIGERS.

“Baseball Dreaming" - An Evening with Gary W. Moore
District 202 Education Partners,
This is a reminder and special invitation to the CULMINATING EVENT for the 2009 Great Read community literacy program.
Tomorrow, Wednesday, April 1, 2009, The Great Read is proud to present “Baseball Dreaming - An Evening with Gary W. Moore” in the auditorium at Plainfield East High School, 12001 S. Naperville Road, Plainfield.
The program is free and the entire community is invited. Please spread the word and plan to attend.
Author Gary W. Moore will talk about his book, Playing with the Enemy, which has been the center of this year's Great Read program. The program started last fall, just as baseball was ending, and is ending tomorrow, just as baseball is beginning!
If you haven't read it yet, Playing with the Enemy is a fascinating and exciting true story about Gene Moore, a baseball phenomenon from Sesser, Illinois who gets drafted into the military during WWII, ju st as he is signed by the Brooklyn Dodgers -- at the ripe old age of 15!
However, if you can believe it, that is just the beginning of this incredible, true adventure about baseball, the war and father-son relationships, and, of all things, the U505 submarine housed at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry.
Moore will sign books from 5-6 p.m. before speaking. PEHS drama students will perform a scene from the book. There will be a display of WWII memorabilia, and Moore will begin speaking at 7 p.m.
A reception/meet-and-greet will follow the program from 8-9 p.m. Plainfield East High School baseball players will also be on hand to make the evening even more authentic and special.
Here is more information about the program, Gary Moore, and this great book. http://www.learningcommunity202.org/greatread/
The Great Read is presented by the Plainfield Public Library, District 202, the Joliet Public Library and the Fountaindale Public Library system, and is supported by a generous grant from the Plainfield Foundation for Excellence.
We hope to see you all tomorrow night!

Children who register after Feb 8th are placed on a waiting list, which does not insure placement on a roster. There is an additional $5.00 late fee charged per player. The wait list will be closed on March 8th.
Equipment: PSA will provide a uniform consisting of a jersey that the player will keep at the end of the season. Black shorts and soccer socks will need to be purchased separately. Players are required to wear shin guards or the sock style shin guards. We strongly recommend the hard plastic style shin guards with the ankle protection. Shoes with a toe cleat are not allowed (cleat at the front of the shoe). Unprotected eyeglasses may not be worn. Players may either wear prescription sports goggles or sports goggles over glasses. The wearing of jewelry (e.g., earrings, rings, necklaces, watches…), hard casts and any items deemed harmful by the referees are strictly prohibited during games. Please see the rule book on our website for specific details on equipment.
Tentative Schedule: The spring season is scheduled to start approximately April 18th and end June 13th. Every effort is made to hold games on Saturdays, but PSA reserves the right to move games to another day to accommodate conflicts. U12 and U14 boys teams may play at surrounding soccer clubs for some games. Divisions may by combined depending on number of players registered. The Plainfield area is large geographically. We do our best to place players north or south but coaches will typically hold practice where/when it is convenient for them. As volunteers, that is their right. The only way to have control over where and when your child practices is to step up and volunteer and to be chosen by PSA to head coach a team.
YOUR COACH WILL CONTACT YOU by phone or email before the season starts. Please check the website for updates and season-specific information.
Refund Policy: $20.00 is non-refundable at the time of registration. Mail-in and late fees are non-refundable and are in addition to the $20.00. No refunds will be given after the first game of the season.
***PSA cannot guarantee the placement of your child on a specific team, unless you volunteer and are chosen to be the coach.

If your child is new to PSA, please provide a photocopy of your child’s government issued birth certificate that PSA can keep. Your child will not be added to a team until PSA receives a copy of the birth certificate.
Children who register after Feb 8th are placed on a waiting list, which does not insure placement on a roster. There is an additional $5.00 late fee charged per player. The wait list will be closed on March 8th.
Equipment: PSA will provide a uniform consisting of a jersey that the player will keep at the end of the season. Black shorts and soccer socks will need to be purchased separately. Players are required to wear shin guards or the sock style shin guards. We strongly recommend the hard plastic style shin guards with the ankle protection. Shoes with a toe cleat are not allowed (cleat at the front of the shoe). Unprotected eyeglasses may not be worn. Players may either wear prescription sports goggles or sports goggles over glasses. The wearing of jewelry (e.g., earrings, rings, necklaces, watches…), hard casts and any items deemed harmful by the referees are strictly prohibited during games. Please see the rule book on our website for specific details on equipment.
Tentative Schedule: The spring season is scheduled to start approximately April 18th and end June 13th. Every effort is made to hold games on Saturdays, but PSA reserves the right to move games to another day to accommodate conflicts. U12 and U14 boys teams may play at surrounding soccer clubs for some games. Divisions may by combined depending on number of players registered. The Plainfield area is large geographically. We do our best to place players north or south but coaches will typically hold practice where/when it is convenient for them. As volunteers, that is their right. The only way to have control over where and when your child practices is to step up and volunteer and to be chosen by PSA to head coach a team.
YOUR COACH WILL CONTACT YOU by phone or email before the season starts. Please check the website for updates and season-specific information.
Refund Policy: $20.00 is non-refundable at the time of registration. Mail-in and late fees are non-refundable and are in addition to the $20.00. No refunds will be given after the first game of the season.
***PSA cannot guarantee the placement of your child on a specific team, unless you volunteer and are chosen to be the coach.
