Recently there have been 2 deaths of cyclists here. One a woman made a left turn right into the riders. No way he had time to avoid from watching the video. The other a biker was at a stoplight and a SUV came over a small rise just before the light and rear-ended him. There are some accidents that no matter what, you won't see in time to do anything about.
Happens in cars too. On a busy state highway following two cars. The 1st car didn't see me. He made a quick right turn then a U Turn. Without looking or stopping made a left back the way he came. Somehow we avoided hitting, but I was forced into the other lane of on-coming 65 MPH traffic. Some how missed them too.
Ride safe on your cycle
