What these folks don’t understand is the danger in not respecting the space of another human being on a bike. Unfortunately sometimes it is too late when they finally get the message. It doesn’t matter if you believe someone should or shouldn’t be on a bike , it is another human being and one poor decision and that life comes to an end. No turning back!
But you also cannot just randomly blame the vehicle for the accident without all the facts (each accident is created differently)
there is a reason why these things are called accidents (normal people just don’t wake up one day and say I am going to run over a bicyclist today). Things happen (unfortunately).
and yes it’s sad
