*Why do these type of crashes never show the cyclists that caused the
carnage.*
I think it's a cover up.

I would like to know who arrived at the scene first.
The Ambulance, the car or the Cycle Responder?

I have never seen a cyclist capable of taking an injured person to
hospital.

I have never seen a motorbike that was capable of taking an injured
person to hospital but there are still motorbike paramedics.

Better to bring a vehicle capable of actually taking the injured person away. That's why every ambulance I've ever seen has four wheels. Trying to save money or something?


Better to stabilize the casualty at the scene then determine the best way to move to hospital.
That is why we have paramedics rather than scoop and run ambulances.


Hint: the ambulances have paramedics in them.


As do the Cycle Responders.
The difference is the Cycle Responders get there faster.
Thank you for proving my point.
Apology accepted in advance.
