Left no room for the Dodge not to hit him.....

I felt no sympathy for the the cyclist....he played Russian Roulette with a large loaded pickup and lost....

kinda like feeling sympathy for someone who shoots himself... stupid should hurt...


Motorists do that too. Disregard for stop lights and stop signs isn't unique to the cycling community.
