Cars do not care about cyclists on the road. I consider myself extremely diligent when riding, and have still been hit twice. Once by an individual who was on the phone and veered into the bike lane. The other incident I made direct eye contact with the driver and was still hit. The driver proclaimed my sweaty biker face was distracting and couldn’t manage to pull their foot off the gas…
Biking is one of the most dangerous sports in the world, and it’s not due to the riders.
My condolences to the family of the rider. May they Rest In Peace.
