Remember kids... always wear a helmet. (The almighty bikeradar helmet thread)

If a driver hits you and you have a head injury then I can see grounds for some mitigation (1) to the extent you would have been better off wearing a helmet (ie not mitigation if you were hit at a speed where the helmet would have done no good, or if you were killed due to chest injuries) and (2) because you as a cyclist have failed to take the non-mandatory advice in the highway code. Helmets may not be mandatory but you are ignoring the advice of the state by not wearing one.

In the case in question the driver was undeniably at fault and had been found guilty, not only that but he had previously killed a cyclist with his car.

If you honestly believe that there is ANY mitigation for gross negligence then you sir are an ignorant, foetid, infected blue waffle of a cunt. Seriously, fuck you. There is no mitigation for taking someone else's life through your own ignorance or sense of self importance because you happen to be sitting in a mobile metal box.

I started reading this thread again because I thought it was mildly amusing to see you bring out the same tired clichés of arguments but in a slightly more preachy way and get smacked down time and again. Honestly you are like some kind of retarded puppy that does not realise it is running in circles and cannot understand why it never gets anywhere.

This post is meant to offend you.

I do not like you.

You are a cunt.

Don't bother replying you are on my ignore list.
