The judge concluded that the motorist’s actions, which saw him strike the cyclist from behind, were “at the lower end of carelessness” after his vision was “significantly obstructed” approaching the roundabout

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.

    Same as driving at night with no headlights on. Which the cyclist was apparently also doing, as their light was out.
