Last time I checked, several people were killed by cyclists in Central Park during one summer (a couple of years ago). Fair and balanced!

A drunk driver is a risk you can’t void whether on two who’s or four - or on foot.

To make it worse, the perp hit the male bicyclist, stopped, and then proceeded to keep going and run him over again

Its difficult to say accurately, but the daylight in the video looks like late afternoon, which is probably when indeed people will go cycling. If you are drunk with a BAC of 0.15 by 5 PM and out driving, you’re an alcoholic.

The driver shouldn’t have been drunk driving but I have little sympathy for the elitist snob bicycle riders who make traffic hazards of themselves.

Cops say Benjamin Hylander — an American Airlines cargo worker — careened his car into retired physician Tom Geppert and his fellow cycling group rider Deborah Eads near Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport Monday ... and now, we know the charges he’s facing.

Maybe I wasn’t wrong,

I take your comment to mean you are one of those skintight spandex wearing bicycling snobs.

We know how people are treated in these places.
Biden will use some Zelensky bribes to fix it. Sure!

I'm one of those evil internal combustion engine powered vehicle owner/drivers who has a healthy respect for the laws of physics and I'm reminded of it each time I pass a deer carcass.

At least for the deer, one can sort of say they didn't know any better.
