Recently, in Poole IIRC, a cyclist went into the back of a van that had

Probably very little. Probably some minor injuries, if the cyclist
had struck any of them.



So a hansen ploughing into a group of old age pensioners at a speed fast
enough to kill the hansen if he hits another vehicle is only going to
cause a few minor injuries. That's all right then.
