sorry, couldn't resist.

Crass.

On a serious note, it's not likely more/better reflective clothing would have helped. It sounds like the driver was deliberately and abruptly deviating from the normal lane to bypass traffic. It was not a decision made with the safety of others in mind.

Incredibly inappropriate. You do understand that a member of the community died, right?

I think HN has long passed the point where the passing of a community member has any effect on trolls. It's Eternal September.

This was a pretty good example of something similar that happened an year back, and I'm sure there are more examples (I just never bothered to pay attention to them).
