I swear some people are just waiting to die, on my trip home I managed to encounter such a person. He was walking him bike on the side of the road, mind you an unlit road (national limit) witn NO high-vis jacket, no light on the rear of the bike and fairly dark clothing.

So as I approach the only things I can see are these amber strips fairly close to the ground, as I’m trying to figure out what the fuck is in my path I finally get to a point where my lights are hitting him (which is fairly close), thankfully he was far enough off the road and the carriage way big enough to give plenty of room, but what if he wasn’t, what if he was cycling like that?

Serously people need to be taught common sense these days as it seems not to come naturally now.
