From Murcia Bike Association we first express our condolences and sadness to the family of the dead cyclist on the road he was traveling on his bicycle in the early morning hit by a truck on a roundabout in the north of the city .
Secondly, we show our outrage at the situation in which we too often cyclists when we exercise our right to move on our bikes in both urban and interurban roads.
We demand the government to create safe cycling infrastructure and real measurements of traffic reduction and calm that allow people who increasingly use the bike as transportation can circulate safely.
And, with more zeal and care in areas close to schools and working to encourage other forms of mobility other than private car.
Especially in this accident have a fact we have already found on other occasions, as is the danger that the roundabouts are for two-wheeled vehicles.
At the same time, demand awareness programs for drivers to adapt their driving to the coexistence of all types of vehicles, calling for greater respect and care on the road to the bike since we are the most vulnerable to a collision.
Murcia partners soon placed a Bike White Bike the scene to remind everyone this unfortunate event and lead us to reflection and action to improve mobility in our city.
