Would we even KNOW about this story if the reporter hadn't included the bit about clipping the cyclist who was riding on the shoulder? Truck drifts off the road, driver overcorrects, hits oncoming car -- whose fault is it then, the birds and the bees, or maybe the bobcat in the tree next to the road? Knee-jerk whale-turd idiots, go off whenever they see/hear about/imagine a bicycle on pavement.

I guess, according to them, all bikes should be single-speed, 20" wheels or smaller, with 8-inch disc brakes so they can stop at the speed of thought, and never go more than about 10-12 mph.

We know the speed limits, we know the speed of sound, we even know the speed of light; but how can we even MEASURE the speed of stupid?
