Attack of the Feed

Yep, there I was minding my own bidness when I was checking my MySpace messages, then dropped in to check out my e-mails, and there it was. Big as life, and nuthin’ I could do about it. Another Feed.

The Big Story is a San Diego bike commuter was nailed in the bike lane by an old guy driving a BMW. Bicyclist Struck And Killed In Sabre Springs and Autopsy Pending For Man Killed In Bike Crash and the latest updateID Released: Bicyclist Hit & Killed by Car in Sabre Springs Something has to be done. We moved off the roads and into Ghettos (bike lanes), and yet we still get hit and killed by drivers who can’t or won’t share the roads, even when we aren’t on them.

And from MI, a 16 YO that may have been impaired by alcohol kills a bike commuter. Warren bicyclist killed by car And less than 8 comments in we have a bike hater claiming the wreck was the fault of the cyclist and not the freshly minted 16 YO driver suspected of being under the influence not to mention 5 years away from being able to legally consume alcohol. Have I mentioned that I hate drunk drivers? Seriously, if it wasn’t for my ingrained sense of fairness for the newbs at drinking still learning how much is “too much” I would say throw them all in a pit and throw them a PB&J once a day.

And from Jolly Olde are two reports on the same wreck. Teen cyclist killed on Bristol’s Portway and from the Beeb Boy killed in Portway collision I don’t know why they even bother with more than one report, they don’t tell you anything anyway… Did I mention I love living in a country with a free press?

Aaaannndd that’s it for this Feed,
