Using your logic, they would also be at fault for their carelessness.

Using your logic I would have to give the tiniest sliver of crap to be watching the Tour, which I ain't.

See post #53.

And please do self-indulgent photos responsibly. None of us are the center of the universe. Some of us just don’t realize it. Thanks in advance.

Maybe she can get a plea deal.
Offer her that if she does community service by shaving her head and going topless in France for say, 30 days she can go free. And she has to wear a mask.
Hey Babylon Bee - can you top that?

‘Blown out of proportion’.

Agreed.

The riders bear responsibility for avoiding the hazards of the road.

So with 21 total injured in 2 crashes, the second crash would have been 12 injuries.

It is a known hazard of the race.

When driving, it is the last one to make a mistake that is ticketed and fined.

If someone makes a mistake and opens a door into traffic… not fined.

Driver who drives into the door -ticketed and fined.

Drivers have to be aware of the road conditions.
——
“ The Tour medical report lists nine riders injured in the first crash, with Jasha Sütterlin (DSM) incurring a large hematoma on his wrist and his teammate Casper Pedersen being taken to the hospital for x-rays and stitches.”

Just sentence her to about 100 hrs of community service: walking around picking up litter while wearing a sign on her back, with her name and crime.

Do it on a race course. Or take your chances on public roads

...Also more “mostly peaceful” protests where charges are not pursued.

He is not just defending her; he said that she should be awarded a medal because he thought this crash which resulted in what could be career ending injuries for some was funny. It is just another example of someone who does not seem to realize that making idiotic and indefensible statements about one situation causes others to question their point of view about other situations. The person we are speaking of has a long history of making what he seems to believe are witty comments, but which tend to lower the level of discourse here. In other words he neatens up his eye brows with hedge trimmers... Just Sayin’.

What career would you be referring to?

Riding a bike in a dense pack?

Injuries? Did they get a boo boo?

She should sue Tour de France for not having even a rope marking gallery.

She could have been killed due to their negligence.

The Tour de France is an institution in France. People know how they should behave... they do not need a bunch of money grabbing lawyers as you seem to believe. You obviously have no idea the amount of dedication and sacrifice it takes to reach the levels that these riders have. It is embarrassing that you seem to be as ignorant as your statements indicate.
