If you don't know how vulnerable you are on a bike then you shouldn't be on one

Anyone with half a brain knows how vulnerable it is on a motorcycle but it doesn't stop them getting it wrong now and again.  I saw your brake lights come on in a hurry a couple of times on the way to the Ponderosa.

Bikes don't leak oil',.... they mark their territory :o)           Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of fuel before you can think straight. Growing old is manditory... but growing up...well that my friends...is OPTIONAL!

It is getting more and more used for minor incidents now ,it was mainly used as you said for either a death or a serious injury ,but with the growth of forums and not everyone knowing who each other are, people are posting it up just to see if others might know the person involved .
I was out yesterday on the dirt bike and some of the roads were still a bit damp in places ,so thought there might be a few more accidents with the way some idiots were riding , they are like flowers ,only coming out when the sun does and expecting to be just as compitent as they were 6 months ago when they put the bike away in the shed,just hope there are'nt many more "Biker down" threads this year
