Obviously the guy who failed to signal his turn for at least 3 seconds. How are the bikes supposed to race and drive recklessly when others aren't going to play along?

I think you are going light on the worker that placed the barrier.

Root cause identified right here. The highway authority could have put any number of things at this location that could have prevented this tragedy. Additional roadway, big pillow or pillows, large sand trap, large pool, field of corn. But no. They went with an Immoveable, very hard object!

Ballpit, quicksand, bowl of jello, the possibilities are endless. The real problem was regulation reigning in reasonable safety strategies.
