Driver deliberately turns into cyclist and causing cyclist to crash
Cyclist’s headcam captures crash with car
I don't why the headline states "high speed crash" because the cyclist was only doing 20mph. http://metro.co.uk/2015/10/25/cyclis...h-car-5461429/ |

The breath gets sucked out, y'know. There are three little understood things that separate cars from bicycles. The first, of course, is that the problem with trains led to the development of breath anti-suck out equipment. This is energy consuming so is difficult to fit to bicycles. Then, we know that steel is magnetic; the polarity affects mental function and car manufacturers are careful to position the sheets the right way round to improve the calmness, intelligence and reactions of those inside. At least, we are constantly being told this is how drivers behave. The third is that cars and bicycles are affected differently by the laws of physics: a car is heavy enough to behave according to classic Newtonian mechanics; a bicycle is small and light so it behaves according to, as yet, little understood quantum mechanics. That's why cyclists shift space-time so that they exist nowhere but everywhere simultaneously. And helps explain why they are invisible in daylight but easily seen without lights at night |

When did you last clear out your pannier? |
