the problem in the states, is people are not programmed to watch out for motorcycles because there are so few of them. So you get to an intersection and your instinct is to look for things that have the shape of a car.
I doubt the guy ran the stop sign, rather, he looked, didn't see a car and made the decision to go and ignored the shape of the motorcycle subconsciously.
When Im driving a car here in Thailand, all Im thinking about is motorbikes, where are they, which direction they are coming from. They are everywhere and you have to be very defensive in your driving because nobody follows any laws here.
