CMV: If you choose to drive a motorcycle rather than a car, you are incredibly irresponsible

At some point in your life, you will get into a fender bender or worse. It might not be you fault, but it is almost certainly going to happen. In a car, getting rear ended isn't a big deal. Might ruin your week, but you'll be okay. If you're on a motorcycle, it's a life threatening situation. Think of any minor accident involving cars. It's probably going to really mess up someone on a motorcycle. I once listened to a guy camping talking about motorcycles and shit. He said basically everyone he knows who rides one has at some point has some horrible wreck. He's been in the hospital twice and almost died once. The only thing I could think was "holy shit you're still riding a motorcycle by choice. What a fucking idiot."

Defenses I've heard are "well if it's their (the car's) fault, they should be more careful." This is technically true. At your funeral, I'll get up and say "Mark is dead, but it wasn't his fault, so it's okay." You should not live your life assuming no one around you will ever make a mistake.

"It's my life, if I want to risk it, let me." Getting into a wreck and dying actually effects more people than you. Besides people who care about you (family, friends), EMT's, hospitals are forced to save your life with is a huge resource we're all paying for. I admit this is a weak ass argument compared to the family and friends.

My last point might be the most unpopular. By riding a motorcycle, you are increasing the danger of driving a car too. Yes, if you get into a wreck and it's your fault, you fucked up. But you're increasing the negatives results of an accident. People make mistakes and they should be very careful, but things happen. If you get into a minor wreck, it costs you some money. Your insurance goes up. If it's a motorcycle involved you're potentially looking at vehicular manslaughter. Again, if it's the car's fault, they should've been more careful. But by increases the results so drastically I think the person on the motorcycle is horribly irresponsible. As a comparison, what if I drove around with crate of explosives in the back ready to go with any impact? If you hit me, I'm dead, you're dead, everyone is dead. That's on you. Or is it on me for irresponsibly increasing the results of a standard fender bender?

This last point is increased when you consider some states (mine included) don't have helmet laws. But I don't think it'd be unpopular to say those without helmets enter into a new stratosphere of stupidity.

Edit: I'm done responding now. There are just two points being brought up and I've responded to them. My view definitely isn't changed with the exception of major cities like Tokyo, maybe New York. All the logical points have already been made at this point. Thanks for your responses.

So driving a vehicle that's relatively cheap, incredibly fuel efficient, and really only places yourself at risk, is more irresponsible than driving a huge vehicle with poor braking, is highly fuel inefficient and is likely to kill someone if you get in an accident? 

 Driving large vehicles is far more irresponsible than driving a motorcycle. They endanger yourself and others, and are environmental disasters.
