sad stuff all round.
Unfortunately there is a massive problem with general attitudes to cyclists from drivers in NZ, with a huge amount of blame on cyclists coming from idiotic opinion writers, talkback radio jocks and the general public (same old shit about road tax, RLJing, cycle lanes etc). As well as terrible drivers. Be very careful if cycling in NZ, it makes the UK look like a cycling paradise.
similar incident happened a few weeks ago in NZ too.
