Go ahead try it. You’ve linked an opinion piece and a paper on news headlines. You didn’t just Google those and then linked then before fully understanding in order to try and win an Internet agreement did you? You also ignore that the overall clearance rate for murder starts under 50% and convictions below 30 right, but you expect that to be a higher clearance for bikes?
No, I linked those because I have had this argument for years now and it’s tiresome. People driving cars can clearly get away with much more than if they were not in a car.
The last incident I just read about was a cyclist that was killed by someone in a car. He was in a group of 10 and the driver claims she didn’t see him. No charges, it was “obviously” an accident. Someone is dead, killed by someone driving a car, and it’s no biggie. It’s just an “accident”.
So, whatever the clearance, either it’s a huge pickup or a sedan, it doesn’t really matter if the driver can see people in front of them or not, they can just say they didn’t see them, it’s an “accident”.
There are indeed statistics on how clearance and the height of a vehicle can be more deadly, but again, it doesn’t really matter because nobody cares about deaths caused by cars.
