The cyclist was travelling too fast down a hill and smashed into the

Luckily passers by took her to hospital for facial surgery.

a hill in the Tour De France. I was in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

I wonder what the result would have been if it has been a car driver
coming down the hill, and not a cyclist.



How about applied the disc brakes and come to a timely stop?
