Hitting a cyclist, or pedestrian is a result of not paying attention to your surroundings while driving. Period. No one meant to do it (hitting that is) but people allow themselves to become distracted (for any reason) and that is no accident. The word accident is very much over used to wave away the horrible consequences of poor driving. As a society we have stopped valuing life outside of moving vehicle.

Since we don't have the facts or clear witness testimony, my statement stands.
