Smite Angle

from We Have Concerns Hosted by Jeff Cannata/Anthony Carboni

Hampshire's Ipley Cross is a notorious crossroads where cyclists keep getting hit and even killed by motorists, despite the mostly level terrain around the place where two roads cross each other at a seemingly innocuous angle. A navigational hazard called "constant bearing, decreasing range" means that frequently, the first time a driver and a cyclist will see each other is a second or two before the car strikes the bicycle. Jeff and Anthony take the issue head on. GET BONUS EPISODES, VIDEO HANGOUTS AND MORE.
