They'll definitely have cellphone coverage by tomorrow or Friday. If you've got any of their phone numbers, I'm sure you could make arrangements to meet them somewhere.

"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."
David Desautels, in a letter to velonews.com

View this as a slideshow.
I spent an hour cropping and fixing these and it doesn't show here. Extra bonus annoyance points for them being all out of order and i've already wiped my memory card.
Now I'm annoyed again.
I'm tired.
