Your correct in a lot of your assumption. In the 7 cyclists killed in the 4 months, 3 cases have ended in quick plea bargins and 2 drivers have yet to be found. The other 2 are pending court adjudication. So it really makes you think that the court sustems do not take this seriously. One of the quick plea bbargins was 4 months in jail to a woman that hit and killed a cyclist while driving on a revoke license for DUI. She was found 4 days after the incident still driving the vehicle with a shattered windshield and extensive front end damage.
