Horrific. Very fortunate that there weren’t any fatalities.

Can’t wait to hear the excuse explaining this one.

    For a lot of people including me not driving in not an option. Everything is a few miles away in between parking lots of other people living in the same dilemma.
    This compounds as you’re older and have to go places for doctor appts. Or groceries: nothing is walking distance and the cycle grows as people move farther away for cheaper land.
    When I ride the bike people tell me to be careful but when they drive I can see them eyes on screen like if they’re on their living room couch.

      Old age health care needs to include rideshare allowances. Just my two cents for a short term solution until the US actually builds better public transit options. But I get where you’re coming from. Keep looking for those eyes. It’s the safest way to ride. And get a helmet cam and a rear cam. Be safe!
