I go up tunnel all the time too! Just getting there safely feels like training sometimes, let alone the rest of the ride.

For cyclist in some states it is pefectly legal to do a rolling stop or proceed without stopping if there are no cars coming.

I've decided to go up Tunnel this afternoon, and I may blow those stop signs just in solidarity.

I'm glad these guys aren't seriously hurt.

It's weird but everytime I think of getting a GoPro or similar device I keep thinking that I could be recording my own death, and is that something I'd want my family to see?

This is true in Missouri. We do not have to come to a complete stop if it is clear that there are not any other vehicles coming. Not saying it is in good measure to do this just because the law says we can, but not all states have the same laws.

Yes, but California isn't one of them - it's also a $125 fine. Has nothing to do with the hit and run though.

The fine depends on where you live? It's 300 something in Santa Clara county.

totally OT, but did you work for Entre in the mid 90s or go to Bishop O'Dowd?

yes terrible thought ----- though, if you're dead, and you were hit by someone with money (UPS?) they could live pretty well off of the settlement.

Any stats from anyone as to which type of collision is more likely from the rear or from the front/side? I might start mounting my gopro for my rides but not sure which way to point it.

To avoid city traffic I ride in the suburbs but that makes it red neck territory and it has its own negatives. I ride solo and I've already had the ocassional a-hole yelling or revving up the engine right when passing by me.
I guess until those a-holes don't get in serious police trouble or a hefty fine they'll keep thinking that harrassing bike riders is good fun.
I'm also debating regarding the camera mount, forward or rear facing. I've found no consensus or statistics that would favor one or the other. Guess the safe bet would be to mount two cameras.

Shocking seeing that.

hit and run they should get 30 days Jail and the car crushed.

The police everywhere need to be harder on people that break laws.

Thanks for the followup post Cathy.

They have a video of his car hitting the cyclist. Not of who was driving the car.
