The first article title I read on the story only said that he died. Just now ran into the more accurately titled article here on Lemmy

    As a driver, I’m terrified of cyclists and treat them like a really slow moving car or bus - give them all the room and don’t overtake unless they’re stopped or the opposite side lane is clear. But then I’m probably an annoying driver.

      There’s no need to be terrified. Giving plenty of space is sufficient.

      I do get some cars who are scared to pass and sometimes that ends up creating more hostilities as the cars behind that car end up getting frustrated and pass with anger.

      It’s great to be cautious but you can also be too cautious.
