Cosby once had a skit where he essentially said "If Alcohol intensifies your personality...what if you're an asshole?"
Because man, if you're a drunk that's passing people on the shoulder when they try to make room for cyclists, A) It ain't your first time drunk behind the wheel and B) You were already a pretty monumental prick.

Being an asshole already is dumb. Being a drunk driver is moronic. It’s preventable. Hope the book gets thrown at Higgins.

Man, when I was a kid I had a great uncle who died because he went over a pothole and shattered his helmet which led to complications causing his death. I didn’t learn to bike until I was 10 (this was when I was 8) and very rarely bike now. I don’t really feel comfortable biking unless it’s in like a park or an area where there isn’t a chance for idiots to hit me. You can do everything right and still get the wrong result.
