What a terrible tragedy. It is what we all fear when we get on the bike.

In Oregon, there have been bicyclists killed this year, just like you described. The biker is doing everything right, and a car will make a turn into a drive or side street without looking and run over the cyclist. The motorist always claims the sun was in their eyes. I don't get it. I really don't. When I am driving, if the sun blinds me, I certainly don't make any turns until I can see what I am doing and where I am going. So I don't understand this explanation as to why a driver kills a biker.

And I don't understand how we can protect ourselves against people who drive while being blinded by the sun. Are there any solutions?

Anyway, lots of hugs for you.
