If we continue to have 200lb bicyclists sharing the roadway with 80,000lb trucks, every interaction becomes lethal. THIS IS A SOLVED PROBLEM that we continue to ignore.
Doesn't really seem like it's very solved to me?
The solution is to separate bike lanes from the road, this is ignore in basically all north american cities and else where too.
That said I think the bike in the video is a motorcycle so that wouldn't have helped them in this case.
on street parking is a plague. They could at least eliminate the parking by shifting it to a park n ride scheme.
