Only 2?

What's scary is the number of them that aren't reported, or seen as not serious enough to talk about.

I'm from Albuquerque and all of my family is still there. I always think about buying a bike to keep there for when I visit, but I haven't gotten around to it and the drivers are a big reason why. It's scary enough dealing with them when I'm in my own 3,000 lb steel box, and I'm not sure I'd risk it on a bike.

I hope these cyclists heal up and that the perpetrators are brought to justice.
