I can't stop thinking about it.
Photos and article from The Daily Telegraph website.

This horrifying picture shows the moment a US man apparently drunk and asleep ploughed into cyclists on a bike race - killing one and injuring at least 10 others.
Driver Juan Campos, 28, was charged with killing Alejandro Alvarez, 37, along the highway near the US-Mexico border.
Authorities said the wreck happened 15 minutes into the 34km race yesterday between Playa Bagdad and Matamoros, across from Brownsville, Texas.
Campos, who police claimed was drunk and asleep during the incident, said he was an American citizen living in Brownsville. The US Consulate could not immediately confirm that.
"We are looking into the incident in terms of whether American citizens were involved," consulate spokesman Todd Huizinga said.
Rumor is that the car on the right side of the photo was the lead car for the race (police car maybe) and that he/she should have taken the hit. Would it have saved lives? What would you have done as a cyclist or the driver? Wow.

Oh man, those pics put a real twist in my guts.
Vary scary and sad too.
What i'd have done is hard to answer with only a split second to react.
Take the hit.
Swerve.
Gasp and slam the brakes.
Pray.
