I saw a PSA the other day reminding pedestrians that you do not have armor and that cars act like they own the road because they do. The best thing you can do as a pedestrian or cyclist is to assume your are invisible and to not escalate road rage situations. Telling yourself "but I had the right of way" won't speed your convalescence.
- bqe 9y agoThey were already in the crosswalk when the car hit them. What should they have done, precisely? This victim blaming that happens to cyclists and pedestrians after they're hit is shameful.
- louprado 9y agoSorry, I was making a general comment and I didn't read the article because others warned it was too disturbing. I find blaming oneself is always the best strategy in life especially in a close-call life-and-death situation. Agreed, it is self-deluding at times. And I would never apply such judgement on others especially the dead -- what would be the point.
