The article ends with a sentence that I've never seen so quickly, or at all, for cycling deaths in Australia: "The driver of the van has been charged with reckless homicide and injury." It appears that in Spain drivers have a duty of care towards all road users.
So, as I said in the title, it could be worse for her grieving family: the crash could have happened in a country where the most vulnerable road users are treated with contempt, in a country where misuse of motorised vehicles is considered to be a right.
It could have happened here.
