@Southwark_News #EverydayAbsolution of drivers is systemic in our language, media, society and justice system.
The *driver* crashed their car into a stationary object - why do you seek to blame anything but the driver?
@HantsPolRoads Doh #1
A well maintained car will not overheat.
#EverydayAbsolution.
Doh #2
In a functioning democracy, protest is not illegal, so you're supporting the suppression of this who seek to jold power & influence to account.
Not a good look, @HantsPolRoads but not unexpected.
@allpartycycling This in the consequence not of a 'momentary lapse', but of the odds catching up with habitually bad driving habits.
This would not happened if they had been driving to #TestStandard - we need regular retesting of *all* drivers.
The #EverydayAbsolution of drivers kills people.

Sadly, #EverydayAbsolution of drivers is systemic in our language, society and justice system.
@AtAndrewM @CharlesBarrabal @BBCNews #EverydayAbsolution of drivers is systemic in our society, justice system and language.
@laura_laker @2_Wheeled_Wolf Not pavement parking but #PavementDriving (which is illegal).
Yet, as a very senior police officer told me: "We didn't see them drive on the pavement, so don't prosecute." ๐คฆ
I asked if he thought they'd been craned there & he answered "Perhaps".

@theeyecollector @CarriePurdom Crash not 'accident' and the "momentary lapse of concentration" is simply the odds catching up with bad & dangerous driving habits.
We require #TestStandard (retest every 5 years & after every crash or points acquired).
Instead we have #EverydayAbsolution of drivers.
@abperson_cycle @snevinoj Ah, but as a very senior police officer told me: "We can't prosecute them for #PavementDriving because they may have been craned there."

@TheGazette Ahem...
Odd how you report a couple of easily movable scooter but fail to notice the thousands of immovable cars blocking pavements - even the ones in your own photo!

@ibikeburwash Imagine if our use of language didn't absolve drivers of any responsibility?
*With* a car, *by* a driver.

@JamesNonchalant @MPSHaringey #EverydayAbsolution for drivers is systemic in our society and our language.
@Chris_Boardman @thebonnieloon #EverydayAbsolution of drivers is systemic in society and language.
eg "Hit by car" vs "Hit with car"
The former absolves driver of responsibility.
@sitwellcc @MrHappyCyclist Please: *with* a car, *by* a driver.

@markandcharlie @BBCNews @laura_laker #EverydayAbsolution
Our choice of language absolves drivers of any responsibility.
I'm not convinced the bias is unconscious - these are people who are paid to write for a living.
@StopKillingCycl @WilliamNB #EverydayAbsolution of drivers is systemic in our society and our language.
@parimalkumar @KarlOnSea @chrisgerhard That's the tragedy - it's rarely the oft claimed 'momentary lapse of concentration' that kills - it's the odds just catching up with habitual dangerous driving.
