ACCIDENTS BETWEEN CYCLISTS AND DRIVERS RISE IN MARYLAND

Accidents between cars and bicyclists in Maryland increased sharply over the last five years, according to a Capital News Service analysis of crash data.

There were 841 accidents between cars and bikes in Maryland in 2012, according to the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration, a 5 percent increase over the 799 bike-car accidents in 2008.

    Bicycles do not have registration and insurance. Ride at your own risk.

    Some get power between their legs and can't think straight.

    Maybe some more camera's will stop these accidents.
    That's a joke.
