Hmmm, I've been driving motor cycles (and other vehicles including Diesel 4WD's) for thirty something years, I can't say diesel spills have been something I've noticed or worried about too much in my nick of the woods. Do you mean at petrol stations around the Diesel bowser?

Then again when I'm on my bike I might be too preoccupied with all the wallies hooning about in their cars trying to kill ME to notice?

Not here in the UK mate. Almost every country road and main road roundabout is likely to have some diesel spillage. Nothing quite like negotiating a roundabout and both wheels saying 'ta-ta!' because some badly maintained or overfilled vehicle has dumped it's load.

It does tend to sting a little when you hit the floor.....

In the worst possible place! Ouch! I see your point. In a similar vein, my pet hate is the sand washing off building sites. It always seams to be on a bend!

I believe he's talking about the fact that diesel fuel will leave a slick stain whereas gasoline will not. It's not engineering related at all.

If it spills out on roads, that is how I understood it, then it most likely is.
