I think the accidents should be posted for:

a) We can discuss what went wrong.
b) And educate ourselves and others about them.
c) Remind us while bicycling is generally safe, there are risk involved.

Anyone who rides a bike knows that an accident is a real possibility over time. Maybe by learning a little bit from the discussions that occur when accidents are posted, perhaps lessons will be learned that will enable us to perhaps avoid one ourselves. For example, the one I posted about the I-10 accident. Gives people a chance to examine if riding on the Interstate is safe or not, especially since that accident happened at rush time and dusk.

Discussing such things reminds us of the dangers of unsafe riding. Perhaps even lurkers who are not bicyclist but drivers can learn lessons also from posting them.
