The dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed.

I’m really not a fan of the cops arguing that the cyclist was partly to blame, though, and a €1000 fine is pretty damn low for breaking someone’s leg and wrecking a good six months of their life.

    When going 50km/h the average distance needed to come to a comfortable stop including taking a whole second to figure out what’s happening and react is 40 meters.

    For an emergency stop (still taking the 1 second reaction time) it’s 28 meters.

    So if you can’t stop with 50 meters you are absolutely unfit to get behind the wheel.
