"Mrs Briggs' widower, Matthew, from Lewisham, south London, moved to reassure cyclists that the case would not spark a “witch hunt” against them. "
yet he was on the news last night doing just that. What he's going through is unimaginable, and it would be remiss of anyone to even begin to understand the pain he's processing as a result of his loss, but i worry that his words are going to merely embolden those that feel it's their right to intimidate people on 'the wrong sort of bike'. would be good if he could caveat his statements with an appeal for calm. so far he hasn't done so, at least not from what i've heard.
