>>1905135Yeah same, closest brush with death I've had in years was a box truck that looked parked and then did this crazy swerve maneuver into my lane as I was passing it. When they're empty they have the maneuverability of a german sports sedan and the visibility of a WW2-era russian tank. At least SUVs generally have a fuck ton of cameras all over the exterior.
I think the meme about SUVs being the biggest threat to cyclists came from the "war on cars" podcast which is run by a bunch of rich white cunts from brooklyn who ACTUALLY HAVE CARS while having the temerity to pose as the official spokespeople for the bicycle riding car-free crowd, this is why I no longer participate in the "urbanism" subculture, it's hypocritical like you wouldn't believe, an absolute cancer.
