I'd agree with that.
Person riding a bi/tri/quadcycle= cyclist whether of sound mind and action or not
Person riding motorcycle(however many wheels) = motorcyclist whether of sound mind and action or not
Person driving a car = motorist whether of sound mind and action or not.
Prejudice is,thankfully,in the minority,to join in the prejudice is to increase the problem.
