    Bright fluro clothes, bright red or white bikes and trikes, usually doing under the speed limit…

    Still getting rammed on the regular.

    At some point you gotta accept our driving standards are way too low, and our punishments way too lenient. If you have a stack, there’s a reason.

      Improving driving standards and increasing punishments won’t fix this. Drivers will always make mistakes. Cars and trucks are unsafe at any speed and need to be separated from more vulnerable road users.

    Amazingly, Ford Rangers underrepresented in these videos; maybe because they wouldn’t show fatalities in a promotional video.
