Same thing goes through my head before every ride in traffic on public roadways. I've been scolded here for comparing cycling in a city grid to "going to war", but how many activities are there where you could easily be killed with a one second lapse of attention, or no lapse at all? The linked article is mostly about undocumented immigrant food delivery people in NYC and what they go through on a daily basis. Or you can just skip all the way down to the last line: “You leave your house,” Jerónimo said. “But you never know if you’ll be back.”
