In that area where the accident happened looks to be just awful for any kind of pedestrian use. I don't think some would feel safe even hitch hiking on that stretch of highway. The victim in this case was a very strong bike rider with a lot more experience than the officer had in driving his car. Many more bikers wheel through that area than police officers, or at least 15 years ago when I use to ride that section, it use to be that way. Now with the police pay raises and added officers that may not be the case.
We need bike lanes on many of our roads, also a few more officers on horses to combat our states fossil fuel problems, jmo.
