Anatomy of a bicycle crash

[Callistus Valerius]

Frontline will be doing second by second analysis of the bicycle crashes of
both Bush and Kerry. Computer animation, witness testimony, and some
analysis by some cycling experts, and a physics scientist will be
interviewed.

Ralph says its the bikes - unsafe at any speed. He's not sure about
Segways either.

The last Corvair wasn't a bad car, especially for the U.S. at the
time...

What made Ralph wasn't that there was a problem with the Corvair, it
was they way GM handled the situation. Unfortunately decades later
they continued this trend of denial and run away from the problem
rather than face it (the Pontiac Fiero a notable example.) There's a
lesson there.
