I'm afraid that I misinformed the Gentle Reader. I told the Gentle Reader that it's safer to walk behind a car than it is to walk in front of a car. The truth is that a car can drive into and over you backwards as well as forward. I told the Gentle Reader that it's safer to ride a bike or walk alongside traffic than it is to walk or ride against traffic. The truth is that a car can strike you down even if you're walking or riding a bike in the same direction. The only difference is that if a car strikes you while walking or riding against traffic, you'll be embedded into the windshield of a car and die. If you ride alongside traffic and a car strikes you down, you'll go flying in midair a few feet before crashing into something---Hopefully soft and not taking the form of asphalt or concrete. Wear a helmet when riding a bike. Use headlight when riding a bike. Use rear view deflectors when riding a bike. It's better to wear bright florescent clothing when riding a bike. Be safe. Be careful. Be well. Ride your bike on the sidewalk instead of riding the bike on the street. Cars can't strike a bike that's riding along on the sidewalk.
And as I'm lost in thought about walking on the sidewalk, here are some photos of Anna Kendrick.
