    I’m shocked Tampa is not #1 on this list anymore, how can it be even worse than here? I don’t know anyone who doesn’t know someone killed by a car hitting them. Eternal vigilance on foot or bike; stop and look at EVERY intersection even if you have the right of way.

    Maybe we just have more non-lethal strikes. I have been hit at slow speed twice, not injured, by cars turning right while looking left. Now I hit them with my hand to get their attention.

      My brother was hit by a car while riding a bike three separate times in the Tampa/St Pete area. His back and spine are all fucked up.
