sad news!
I generally listen for cars approaching behind, but that's obviously much harder on a busy road. I trust most drivers do approach with caution and aren't intoxicated but its not always the case, there needs to be better methods to prevent such tragedies.
eg; cars not starting if your intoxicated and fitted with sensors that detects moving objects on the road up ahead.
my 2 cents.
btw...
I have been rammed by an old driver stationary at the lights, either he was 1/2 blind or misjudged the movement. The point however was straight after the incident he started abusing me for being on the road. With the help of a car behind him I got his number plate and reported it straight away to the police. Abusive and negligent driving is dangerous to everyone, has to be done!
