Impatient, close passing moped driver knocked us off our bike today.

  • Fortunately the police (?) were right behind us, so they could scold me for not wearing a helmet and then leave. First time off my bike since 2007.
    Sigrid is fine; my knee is messed up, can't ride for a bit.
    This is exactly why I don't like to stop for red lights. Inattentive or impatient motorists frequently hit cyclists when the light turns green. Note also, I was in an ASL, meant to prevent exactly this kind of negligence.

    Travis, please please please wear a helmet. I've lost 2 family members to bicycle accidents and the only reason I didn't lose a third is because she had a helmet on when she went down. Even at low speeds, if you hit wrong it can kill you. My aunt was pulling away from a light just like this and hit the pavement, her helmet cracked. She would be dead.

    I don't know the traffic laws of your location, but even assuming you had the right of way, if you end up in an accident like this when you are trying to perform a turn, it is also partly your fault. Yes, you can blame the other person for the initial dangerous situation, but you ending up on the ground is also you not spotting that danger approach in time. Always be aware and careful of your surroundings in busy traffic like that

      @shannonbriggs100 Před 9 měsíci +1

      Well, it is their fault for not having lights on. My job requires me to drive quite a lot at night and there’s been countless bikes on the road with no lights on or any reflective gear. You only see them when you get very close. Thankfully most of the roads I drive on are 30mph and I usually stick to 25-28mph so I can stop/slow down quickly as there’s a lot of wild animals and tons of cats always running out into the road. If they were on a 50-60mph road… it would be a real tragedy.
      And she is right, he should be wearing a helmet. Did it cause the moped to cause the incident? No, of course not but it would certainly protect him from brain damage if another idiot does the same thing at a faster speed.
