The reality is simply that there are good drivers, good bikers, good runners, good walkers and of course, bad in each category also. To label a group as a whole, is not very open minded. I've had many near misses while running, and was hit on my bike a couple of years ago near El Cortez. The thing is, I run, I bike, and..I drive a car. I don't feel an entitlement to any of these modes of transporting my body from one place to another. Apparently many feel quite differently. Wake up.

We all need to hear from someone like Chief X about where "the rubber meets the road". Thanks for posting.
