people get killed on bikes in Abluqueruqe all the time. on road bikes with brakes.
last week a 28 year old man was almost cut in half on his road bike in front of his wife riding on the shoulder.
my assistants dad was killed ridng his road bike home with brakes.
accidents happen brakes or no brakes.
my heart goes out to everyone who has had a friend or family member die on a bike.

lets not turn this into another brake or no brake debate.
