Riddles

You’ve got a good one here, @Boogs. Pull left to turn right suggests a tiller…
but the rest of the clues scatter like sheep.

You're on the right track with that, but less aquatic I say.
And the sheep would be scared, should I pass them this day.

(Why do clues have to rhyme?
Is it just to have a good time?
Maybe it's just cos the words do chime,
And when written by me, considered a crime!)
Um, that's not a clue! 🙂
 
I’ve see farm equipment with tillers, a few.
But which of them matches to each other clue?

For clues to rhyme’s fun,
Which is why it is done,
It gets the brain working,
When effort you’re shirking.
 
Who says the farm is where you will see me?
Nor do you need a Batchelors Degree.

My single bright eye, will inevitably spy,
The dotted white line, forward in time.
And to say that my leanings as such,
Are to left and right - very much!

Rhyming's okay
If done the right way
But too often it's true
They're the opposite of a clue
 
Not in this case, for as you race,
To solve this despicable riddle.
Puzzled your face, as you find no trace,
Of a clue that isn't a diddle!
 
But I tell you for sure, my clues are the cure,
To solving the current frustration.
For the answer in store, will make you cry more,
When you find me in the gas station.
 
Semi-Trailer part of a semi-truck? Drivers usually turn left briefly to position themselves to make right turns. They are often at gas stations, loud and can go to grocery stores to drop off food, etc. They leave no tracks as they have a set of legs that support the trailer part. Does not thus touch the ground.
 
I'm pleased to see you've drifted toward the road, though some of my cousins are happy running through dirt instead! We do what we do for pleasure, and sometimes for need, or even to see who's fastest.
Did you forget my cycloptic optics? What truck/trailer/lorry/farming machine has that?

When I go by the people do stare,
And wish that they too could have wind in their hair.
So they call me dirty and noisy and crude,
Typical middle class way to be rude.
The government tax me, the police do harass,
My owners may come from a low social class.
But like knights of yore, they storm out the door,
And straddle their steed whose voice does so roar!
 
@Cutesie get its it right!

For I am a bike,
No no not a trike!
And I carry a great big motor.
I fly down the road,
When all else has slowed,
I'm a two-wheeled-fun locomotor.
 
I don't have any of my own at the moment, but can I take a raincheck?

I didn't say it doesn't leave tracks!

My soles stick firmly to the ground,
Even as I walk around.
The 'soles' of my 'feet' are my tires.

I'm pulled to the left to turn to the right,
You push the right bar (pull the left bar) forward to turn right (and visa-versa) on a motorcycle or bicycle.

Leave others standing with nary a fight.
Leave all the other traffic standing.

When the heavens open I always get wet,
Exposed to the elements.

But in spring and summer that turns to sweat.
ditto

I'm loud, even noisy, and give you the wind,
speaks for itself?

If you want to join me, you'd best be thick skinned!
It hurts sliding down the road at 50 mph!

We will see. Most of the clues point in that motorcycle direction, but some may or may not depending on what he meant by those and some other words. Motorcycles have race tracks I could argue.
 
"Nope and nay, neither it is I say!
Travel I can, though I have no tracks."

This was in answer to the "caterpillar tracks" previous comment, not tracks on the ground. It was in context.

Is this not the nature of pretty much every riddle here? I know many I can't do because there are so many possibilities.
