Anyone who rides a bicycle on little creek road has a death wish. Even motorcycles don't have it easy.. I've seen 2-3 motorcycles layed down after being hit by cars.

The old guy who got hit was probably senile. I hate to say it but I'm not going to run myself into a concrete wall to avoid someone in the street. I'll lock the brakes up and will swerve some.. but not enough to start sliding sideways and lose control.

Yeah, I'd hate for you to have to replace your car... Instead, you can let the persons family know that they will need to replace their loved one since you didn't want to put a dent or ding in your car.

i doublt its about the car, i'd do anything to avoid something like that but you got to look at the options...hit a pole at 60 and possibly die yourself or worse end up in a wheel chair for the rest of your days or hit a guy who shouldn't have been there in the first place. selfish? yeah but thats how life is nobody will look out for you better then your own self.

I race Legends at Langley and the wreck that killed Dale Lemonds was two cars in front of me. When I went by, his car was about 3 feet in the air and spinning. That still irks me, just can't get it outta my brain. Good luck, relax and remember you couldn't do anything about it. Talk to someone if you need to. If you haven't experienced something like that, it can have some serious effects on a person.

I hope this teaches us to be more cautious when driving on the street because someday some guy is going pop out right infront of your car when your going 60+mph

what part of this dont you understand?

Make it sound like I'm not literate or something... lol. Re-read your original post. None of it made sense.
