the area you show, near an intersection is clearly a no passign zone, however the investigators said in teh article that he was probably in a passing zone. it seems that you jjumped to a conclusion, based upon the offending driver, that the biker was in a no passing zone. now that might be true, but why take some that might have been said to cover the guy’s behind over what the impartial investigators found?

Actually, I didn't 'jump' to a conclusion, nor did I take either the offending driver's or the investigator's word at face value; I used "street view" on Google maps to examine the road markings leading up to the intersection to check for myself. Later, I realized that I had misread the direction of travel in the article and corrected my observation in a follow-up posting (post 17).

gotcha! sorry if I took offense. some people are quick to blame the rider for the actions of the cager. but even if the rider tried to pass in a no passing zone, the cager was clearly wrong for his reaction.
if he think’s he isn’t so mean, he should go and look closely at the biker and the injuries he caused by his childishness. but it seems that we’re in agreement.
