Have you notice how the general opinion is that people getting hit by cars somehow deserved it? My best friend was hit by a text-and-drive kindof woman. He was an athlete and now he can’t walk more than a few hundred meters.

    In reality all of the people I know who are cycling got hit by a car. Hell in this very thread you can see people talking about it. What’s your point exactly?

      That has nothing to do with your claim…

      Your claim says that the majority of people would applaud the driver who hit them. Which is nonsense.

        A vocal minority of people definitely would. Now if you can stop invalidating my experience both on the road and speaking to people, it’s unpleasant.

          A vocal minority is the exact opposite of a majority…

          You’re doing that yourself.
