What's your opinion on Cyclists on the road?

The other friend was hit and he had to crawl off the road as no one stopped, his bike was still on the road and people were just driving around him and his bike. Someone did eventually stop and I think called an ambulance.

Also the statistics in some countries say that close to half of all cycling accidents involving motorists, the motorist does not stop.

Wow, that's horrible.
I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I hit ANYONE and didn't stop!
