[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This is so sad. As a cyclist I hope I'm already careful about looking out for cars and trucks turning right, but given these examples with a clear pattern, I need to be even more so. (Obligatory "and so do drivers," because it's their responsibility not to turn directly into another vehicle on the road, even a bike, and the cyclists killed above were not at fault.)[/quote] Yeah, but the problem is that, as a human, it's not possible for you to be 100% aware, 100% of the time. That's true whether you're walking, or biking, or driving, or anything-ing. Which is why we need safe vehicles (for example, underride guards and blind-spot elimination on trucks) and safe, protected bike infrastructure. [/quote]
