These people are not daft, it you/us that is daft

I can asssure you it wasn't for the 'high' that Im Indoors suffered for the rest of his life, a woman smashed into him from a junction at 40mph, when he was bimbling on a main road at 30, minding his own business....not only did she not see him
, but she did not use her highway code when she came out of said junction, and was speeding......she was down right out of order.....I could argue with you all day about this subject and the pros, cons, risks of biking.........but in the issue of being daft and it being your fault......you won't win that arguement in this case, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't agree with you in others
