As is so common in this sort of thread, it starts with someone doing something wrong then trying to blame the other person, who is in the right.

Here, the motorist failed to look both ways, yet blames the runner for appearing out of nowhere!

Soon all motorists are detailing the close calls they've had, and demanding that those who aren't using a motor should keep off the roads.

Human nature - don't you just love it?
