@glasgowcyclist I have posted before working in A&E taking police handovers if it's a cyclist (or motorcyclist) they are always at fault or they were asking for it cycling where/when they were.
If its a driver, except drink drivers, it is always a tragic accident, either the conditions or dangerous road or some other excuse.
My favourite was a cyclist where someone dropped something on them from a bridge onto a cycle path, and still the police thought the cyclist was probably going too fast based on them saying they saw it at the last minute.
And these are the people we are trusting to accurately record and investigate collisions.
