Hell, I even knew a woman who's husband was hit by A Legally BLIND driver who was out joyriding on a country road.
They added bikes lanes in my neighborhood and I've seen a-hole drivers get into those lanes and essentially force bikers onto the sidewalk b/c they think they are entitled to drive wherever the hell they want.

Since cell phones, I see one or two drivers weaving to the point I think they are drunk every time I go somewhere, but they are (likely) sober and on the phone.
Going to work the other day a driver in the right lane kept drifting over into the left lane as I was trying to pass. After a few attempts I got by him when he drifted towards the guardrail on his passenger side.
Sure enough he was on Facebook driving 70-72 when I passed him. Bunch of dumbasses on cell phones are more dangerous than drunk drivers now a days.

I think he’s one of the “woke” Mormons who has a burning hatred for Trump (like Dale Murphy). Anyhow sad to hear this.

A lot of idiots use these as turning lanes especially along Orange Beach

I would imagine Shawn Bradley on a bicycle would be pretty hard to miss
Apparently that was the problem.

Horrible story....always been a fan of him (I'm a Mavs fan)

How were they able to keep this story quiet for 8 weeks with the media that we have today?

Was he going door to door spreading the book of Mormon? I see those guys on bikes all the time. Almost took a couple out myself

Just saw a pair biking down the road at night in Houston. They must have a death wish.

If you are going to make an edgy joke at least make sure it’s funny first

I would have bet he was way older than 48.

He’s screwed. Big men already have enough issues with their body when they age.

I would agree if he was a quadriplegic

He was in the NBA in the mid 2000s, played for the mavericks.

I understand when he played but it’s kinda like comparing Arron Brooks to Tom Brady and Shaq vs Shawn Bradley.
You kinda add age to a player who you haven’t heard of in years.

Driver had to have been drunk. He was probably riding the largest bicycle on the planet, he was so tall.

I hate hearing about avoidable accidents like this. I used to work with someone who was an avid biker who sometimes biked to work on a public street. There are too many dumbass drivers for me to ever ride a bike on a highway or street. I hope Bradley is able to recover as much as possible.
