Jesus, is nowhere safe from cars? On Tuesday, a woman drove her Cadillac right into a California bike store at 30 to 40 miles per hour. Nobody was seriously injured, but as the video shows, it was a close shave. Perhaps literally. The two people standing my the counter may actually have had the hair scraped off their legs.

Here's another point in favor of bikes: Think about what a video of a bike running into a car dealership would look like.

1. possibly some broken glass, but more likely a broken nose and a few teeth
if a bike were to run into a car dealership.

2. Is the woman on crutches fortunate or unfortunate?
Unfortunately she broke her leg.

Fortunately it wasn't a bad break.

Unfortunately a car crashed through the shop she was visiting.

Fortunately she wasn't run over.
