    Cyclist very rarely die when they collide with a car. It’s mostly when a car collide with them…

      A collision involves two entities, in my mind. They collided with each other, so to speak. But I’ll bet it was caused by the driver. 👍

    “Pedestrian was killed after a shoe crash when he ran into a car”

    That’s what this article sounds like…
