    from time to time, there seems to be a thread about bikes, and the obvious disdain for cyclists, from some people is obvious - with lots of blame pointed at the cyclist.

    it seems however, that in about 80% of accidents involving cyclists, it is the car driver who is at fault

    Shifting the burden of proof to drivers — who must prove they didn't cause a crash — has been highly successful in other nations, along with other measures, in keeping cyclists safer and reducing accidents.
