Irrespective of flaws, the article provides useful takeaways:
1) Don't be a gutter bunny;
2) Wear bright colours;
3) Advocate lower speed limits on roads w/ bicycle and pedestrian traffic;
4) Advocate a ban on all cell phone use by motorists (focusdriven.org).
I also think it's time for me to splurge on those super-bright front and rear "blinkies" -- daytime running lights for bikes, if you will.
