Another day, another hit-and-run.
The incident took place in Jefferson County, where on Friday, September 22, a pickup truck driven by a 60-year-old man struck the cyclist, as reported by the Florida Highway Patrol.
Law enforcement authorities managed to locate the driver, who had struck the cyclist, a short time later. Shockingly, the bike was impaled into the front grill area of the truck.
The drivers in these two cases were 60 and 23, respectively. I'm not sure why this rant fits here?
Every driver was once a new driver. They all have to learn to drive on real roads. There's no way around that. The stickers are intended to encourage other cars to not harass them in situations they may already be finding stressful. They exist precisely because not-new drivers are often impatient and are prone to making the situation worse because of it. If the stickers raise your blood pressure, take a step back and give yourself a good talking to.
Driver training should be better, of course. A compulsory 1000 miles by bicycle and another 2000 on a motorbike before being allowed behind the wheel would be the simplest place to start. Cyclists and motorcyclists make safer drivers.
