Commentary:
Even though we don’t quite know what may have caused this accident, or which party involved may have been responsible, people still need to understand one thing: cyclists have every right on the road that people in cars and trucks have. When a cyclist decides to take to the road, they are to obey and abide by all the laws motorists follow, and in exchange, they are provided with every right motorists are given. In the State of Texas, not only is it common courtesy and polite to share the road, it is the law.
