Driving against traffic, entered an intersection against a red light, got hit by a motorist driving carefully. I'm waiting to hear some of you figure out some way to blame the motorist anyway. Go for it.
That's an oxymoron...

Cager chooses to operate the more dangerous vehicle by far ergo cager carries much higher burden of responsibility for consequences of choosing a highly dangerous mode of transport, cager must shoulder the burden by default.


Rip to the cyclist, and my sincere sympathy to poor driver who has to live with a death she probably couldn't have avoided.
The cager could definitely have avoided the CARnage if she chose an environmentally responsible, safe, healthy transport option such as cycling, instead she decided that raping the earth's resources, polluting everyone's air, and destroying the environment are a small price to pay for her selfish convenience.
