  2. If this were an industrial accident, would the person who caused it ever be allowed to handle heavy machinery again? I don't think so
    Just refuse people who make such mistakes the right to drive. With ebikes now available it's not such a terrible thing to be removed from the road as a driver

  7. RE: aus.social/@Unixbigot/11653714

    The #Medias choice of words to describe collisions between motor vehicles and other more vulnerable road users, #Pedestrian, #Cyclist, #Bollard etc, is often Pejorative. Even in cases where there is no doubt that the car/lorry was responsible the language used often implies that the fault in not that of the driver.

    Its infuriating!

  12. This is the resulting #Court case - appears #driver did pull over 100m away and return to the scene of the #collision but its not clear when or how the authorities were able to identify him or whether he later handed himself in (he's not being separately charged with failing to stop, which would have happened if they had to look for him)

    The #cyclist has recovered from his #injuries

    Seems that #driver was also a bit of an #oldtimer and his health and #eyesight wasn't the best, he has since handed in his #DrivingLicence to DVLA.

    His son and daughter own a #RollsRoyce dealership across the border in #Essex, which is likely how he acquired this unusual vehicle..

  20. 132 km (82 miles) ride today with roosters

    First time with them. No idea how I ended up with the fastest group. Ripped 100k with them averaging 30+kph (19mph) and made PR for 50k (32kph for that). I actually wasn't sure if I could do this because my fitness level had been pretty rough being lazy and not training during the winter. I guess I still got some LOL. Even pulled the group for about 1 mile LOL.

    Weather was so weird today. It was warm in the early morning, even got very hot during lunch sitting in the sun in Stow. But the temperature took a nose dive right after lunch and it was horrendous headwind all the way back to Dorchester. Worst part was around Hascom and Mass ave across Lexington, Arlington and Cambridge. It was almost like a wind tunnel. Cold and very unpleasant.
