I realise this is a really bad place to say this, and completely beside the point of this article, but I don't agree with this, or that the driver should always be at fault.
Obviously more often than not it is the fault of the driver, and something needs to be done about it, but there are also a huge amount of irresponsible cyclists too. As a theoretical example, the huge numbers of cyclists who jump red lights, if they get run over while doing that, I'd say that's their fault, not the driver who's driver across the junction who runs them over, and has to live with that for the rest of their life.
But I don't want to piss on the memory of those that have been run over by the fault of drivers, and I support what you are doing.
