Thread: Cyclist aware drivers... are you one?

Would it be bad form to have those cyclist stickers on your side guard for each one you cleaned up.

Yet another elderly gentleman mown down by a rogue cyclist.

That's very sad but "mown down by rogue cyclist" might be pushing things a little though. The cyclist was 56 yo, and at 2:30 in the afternoon possibly just tootling along to the shops with his trouser leg tucked into his sock. The pedestrian was 95 yo, so probably wouldn't take a knock too well. Let's leave the sensationalism to the media whom are expert at leaving the facts out and dressing up the words for maximum impact and minimum truth. Shouldn't have happened and very sad all the same.

EDIT: I should just clarify that the item by the ABC was factual and non-sensationalist - as the ABC generally is. One of the very, very, very few media outlets that still runs facts.

Not all the facts, just the ones that align with their support of one particular group and such hugely important issues like same-sex marriage - on and on and on .... And on.
