i'm not blaming the victim here, but i don't think this is a case of zomg crazy drivers !!!111 killing a cyclist. a slip up, at the wrong place, wrong time with disastrous consequences..

tis still a very sad story, but **** happens

a slip up, wrong place, wrong time, sure....but a little caution and responsibility would go a long way in preventing the disastrous consequences.
