> Actually if you want to take that article literally it means that in almost every case a cyclist is killed it's their fault.
Right, because all police officers and DAs and everyone is 100% unbiased in all circumstances no matter what?
Also from the article:
"Take Sgt. Richard Ernst of the San Francisco Police Department, who confronted people holding a memorial at the scene of Ms. Le Moullac’s death. Parking his squad car in the bike lane, forcing other cyclists into the very traffic that killed Ms. Le Moullac, Sergeant Ernst berated those gathered, according to witnesses, and insisted that Ms. Le Moullac had been at fault. Days earlier, the department had told cycling activists that it had been unable to find surveillance footage of the crash.
Provoked by Sergeant Ernst, people at the memorial decided to look for themselves. It took them all of 10 minutes to find an auto shop nearby with a camera that had footage of the incident. The police eventually admitted that the truck driver was at fault, but they still have not pressed charges."
Truck runs over and kills woman. Cops don't cite or charge truck driver, nor do they investigate. Friends do investigate, turns out the driver was at fault. Still no charges by the DA. Clearly there is some bias.
