Feeling bad

Feeling bad about the light hearted nature of the last post having seen two accidents over the last week. In one the motorbike rider was knocked of his bike by a vehicle turning into a side street - cutting his leg badly and was waiting for the ambulance when I cycled by - in the other a motorbike had lost control and skidded under the back of a lorry. The rider was being lifted into an ambulance as the coach went by.
Collegues talk of on average seeing one accident a month. The people are getting used to the much larger volume of traffic - and safety has yet to be learnt - it seems the hard way. Most cannot afford a four wheeled taxi - so a motorbike is their only option.
