Nicely balanced piece on the BBC Breakfast show this morning about how People on Bicycles are dying because they are riding themselves under vehicles. So effin angry I can hardly think. Every day, EVERY EFFIN DAY, someone almost kills me on my ride to work. I am just riding to work, obeying every road rule, being very considerate to every road user I come across, but this does nothing to protect me form people driving cars who see me as a cyclist, someone inconveniently in their way, someone not human with a family and a life and emotions, but something that an be hit with no consequences.
People driving have only their perspective of a situation that in no way risks their life, they calculate situations without factoring that an actual life is involved and at risk, mine.
Unless people change their twisted world view people on bicycles will continue to be killed over and over again, your father, your mother, your daughter, your son, your nephew, your niece, your neighbour, dead under the wheels of indifference.
