@UkeleleEric@mstdn.social @Steveb@mastodon.ie If you're riding a bicycle down a street at 40km/h and you hit a kid that steps out from between two parked cars people are doing to say you were going too fast (and realistically you probably were). But if you're driving down a street and hit a kid at 40km/h, it's a tragic accident in which 'speed wasn't a factor' and you weren't doing anything wrong.
