BTW, Prance gave a lame a$$ performance on the Kornheiser show. If he would have put in half the effort he gave in screwing Contador, he would have performed a valuable service to cyclists everywhere. Very weak considering he's had many run ins with drivers.
Why Prance doesn't ask the obvious question about where all this anger comes from is beyond me....

Yep, Lance should have gone on and punched his lights out ... that surely would have fixed that anger problem of which we are all aware! ....
BTW, the interview was conducted on a long distance telephone line from France. He could have at least gave him a voice version of "the Look." Also I'm not interested in Kornhole's apology. I'm interested in my safety. Just like I don't want an inattentive or ddistracted driver to apologize to me.. I could care less. I want them to wake the f&ck up and pay attention to where they're going and what they're doing.
Bro, work on the reading comprehension. "Lance" had a day to think of something to say to Kornhole and all he could come up with is that if a car brushed a newbie woman 40 year old cyclist that she would in all likelihood, never ride again. I thought the problem was that encouraging already irrational drivers to be aggressive towards cyclists was that members of the cycling community might be either
maimed or killed?

In terms of getting the message out broadly the reasoned approach has to be the way to go. He did that pretty well (whether or not he had a bug raging in his tummy).
Yeah, but the point, which you missed completely, was that Prance did a horrible job of conveying to Kornhole and his audience that what Kornhole was doing was promoting vehicular assault and homicide. Prance should have been outraged and he did a lousy job conveying the idea that a moments stupidity and anger can cost someone their life.
It might be obvious and reasonable to you and me to assume that hitting someone with your car can result in grave injuries and death, but it's also obvious that $hitheads like Kornhole either don't understand the consequences of their actions or are promoting those consequences.
According to Prance it's more important to be cool with Kornhole than to graphically spell out the results of the kind of $hit this *** advocates on the radio.
I don't know how much you ride, but I'm on very dangerous roads more than 10,000 miles a year. Armstrong blew a great opportunity to provide a public service.
It's funny how he can be much more conscientious about important crap like sabotaging Contador during the Tour.
