re: NI bicyclist killed. Dark clothes

I was driving at 6:30, T. Light, like I said, is peeking through. It’s called dawn.

Louisiana law requires you to be visible from at least 500 feet and have front and back lights on your bike if you ride before sunrise. This guy was in dark clothes with no lighting an hour before sunrise. I've done a lot of road biking but there's no blaming the driver here. You have to take the appropriate precautions if you want to ride on the road.

Around 6:30" when the sun rises at 7 means this cyclist, who has a right to the road by law, should be admonished for his decisions after his death and moreover, he was probably black so it doesn't matter that he died, right?!

He was quite literally riding in illegal conditions. And his name was in he article, he wasn't black. It's sad, but it's not the fault of the driver
