All this foo furah over a single incident whereby a celbrity gets his noggin knocked.
Meanwhile the average Joes continue to die. It seems like at least one a week at times here in Tucson.
latest a 37 year old man died yesterday morning on a 1998 Honda while riding eastbound on West Ajo Highway and a 1999 Ford Taurus pulled out in front of him from a stop sign at West Valencis Road. The report states the motoryclist had no time to avoid a collision and impacted the vehicle. He was transported to hospital and died shortly thereafter. He ws wearing a helmet but the impact speed was likely in excess of 50 miles per hour.
The driver and passenger of the ford suffered minor injuries and were released. Both were wearing seatbelts.
Not one word of this will make CNN nor will it impact anything one little bit.
No helmet laws will change and there will be no general outcry from the public to "be aware of cyclists"
