you should not jump to any conclusions....but in this weather , what is already a shite standard of alertness of yer typical car driver is challenged further by the heat. Add in impatience and facebook = recipe for disaster eh ?
my other comment would be that only 2 wks ago I was a bit shocked to see dozens of bikes in mid wales on a sunday ...many many with pillions, almost all in a state of very poor protective clothing. This sort of weather does bring the bike " grockles" out on the road, many of whom are totally unprepared for what is happening. Not necessarily what has happened here of course, but 2 + 2 often does = 4.
feckin sad all the same.... :\
