My best friend was killed riding her bike by someone in the wrong. However imagine my surprise as I was driving my car a while later, and came upon a cyclist on a bridge. Another car was coming in the opposite direction and the bridge was tight, so I slowed down and waited behind the cyclist until we were both off the bridge - and promptly got abused by the cyclist! All for trying to be cautious and look out for him. What I did, I don't know. I hope he doesn't continue to make a bad name for bicyclist, as not everyone has lost someone in this manner and been quite so compassionate. I totally agree.
