“She said she didn’t see us. Didn’t see us. She was very, very upset.”
The driver did stop and is not expected to be charged.
This makes me furious, but it’s completely expected.
Cars are the only weapon where you can kill someone without consequence, even if it was pure negligence or entirely on purpose.
“I didn’t see you” it’s always that line no matter how much effort you make to be seen people get so complacent. Ride with cameras on ideally both directions so bored of cars being given this special treatment because well everyone needs to drive. Thank god it was just a cyclist and not a human.
Hope their family and friends can find peace in this injustice.

The times when I’ve almost been hit by turning cars has been when I was visible enough to see from space. I can’t do anything more to be seen.
If someone is admitting to be blind, they shouldn’t be allowed behind the wheel. Or, they can admit to negligent driving and be fined. They can’t have it both ways.

Wtf???
Bit of a poke, where people see the vehicle and not the person. How dismissive reporting and attitudes can be because it was just a cyclist or motorcyclist etc
It’s humour.
Cars are shit.
Drivers looking at their cell phone instead of the road are especially shit.
Cell phones and hoods you can’t see over. American trucks have become absolutely massive and leave a huge blind spot in front. Saw a video where a guy was standing in the engine compartment of a Tundra. There was a enough room between the engine and the grill that he could comfortably stand on the ground.

There’s a video illustrating how many kids can be in front of a pick-up truck before the driver can see them… hint: it was A LOT.
@Showroom7561 @jewbacca117 It’s a tangent, but the number of Hiluxs that can be parked around a mining haul truck and be invisible to the truck driver is another visibility video that is enlightening to watch.
The number of times I’ve seen people “stalled” at green lights, only to ride past them and see a phone in their hand is quite unbelievable.
If you want to commit murder without consequences, do it with a car.
then charge the engineer who designed a road where drikers cannot seei
