[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in a trauma center, and I still can't believe how many people just rush out into crosswalks and run on the side of the road. People are crazy! Cyclists, joggers take real risk. One day we had three deaths, and two of them became organ donors. Two cyclists and one jogger. Then the ones who live...severed limbs? People, even if you have the right of way, assume that the drivers are drunk or impaired in some way. TAKE NO CHANCES. Safe places to jog are sidewalks, to cycle, use bike paths, not bike lanes on roads. Nothing is worth that. [/quote] Yes, this is good advice. I was hit by a car really bad whe walking with my newborn a few years ago. I now assume no one is paying attention. I also make it a point to tell my kids, as we are walking through parking lots etc, to have their heads up and eyes PAYING ATTENTION to cars etc. I am so sorry for that victim's family. What a tragedy. [/quote]
