I wrote an article about why you should not ride your motorcycle to the hospital when you are about to be a new Father or Grandpa. It is amazing how emotions can take over judgement.

I recommend caging it if you are ever in this situation. Frankly, my only concern was getting to the hospital as quickly as possible and nothing more.
