Myth: Cars are safe from lightning because the rubber tires
insulate
them from the ground.

Truth: Rubber tires provide no protection from lightning.
Cars are safe because of their metal shell and steel
frame. Convertibles are not safe.

And hardly anyone gets struck by lightning in a convertible.

Hardly anyone follows your advice, ******.

Plenty do. And those who ride bikes and motorbikes do in spades.

There you have it folks, the "expert" has spoken.

Anyone with a clue has noticed plenty continuing to ride their bikes
and motorbikes every day and how few ever get struck by lightning.

We can only hope that you do the same, ******.

Even you should be able to bull**** your way out of your
predicament better than that pathetic effort, ****wit child.

Obviously not.
