My cousin was killed the other day by a drunk driver. He was an AVID cyclist.

  It's too bad that the circumstances weren't different somehow, like timing or whatever, so that this would not have happened.  I'm so sorry to hear of your loss.  I hope that you are okay.

That is horrible.  I am so sorry.

I hope the laws are better in CA than in KY, and the drunk gets the book thrown at him.

I'm so sorry.  I'll keep him and your family in my prayers. 

I may start putting 6 lights on my back after reading this. 

It looks like the article started-in about drinking and driving.  Hopefully something good will come of this and someone out there who reads the article will not mix drinking and driving.

I hope that drunk driver gets it in prison personally.

Sorry for your loss. 

This kind of senseless act drives me nuts.  The driver will probably get away with it by pleading the "I did not see him" defence.  And his lawyer will easily brush aside any DUI charge on the grounds that he was not informed of his rights in Swahili or something just as inane.

I'm so terribly sorry to hear that ... a loss is always awful but as a cyclist that's one of our own ... prayers are with your family.

I hope justice will be done.
