Can the media report exactly where the incident occurred (outside Sussex is too vague). With unfortunate incidents such as these, and the demands for "1-metre rule", and "dedicated bike paths"...was she on a country road with no shoulder and 80kms limit and blind curves? Was she unfortunately hit while being 2 m away from the shoulder (i.e. into the drivers path)? Outside of a town/city, these roads are dangerous for any pedestrian, bike or even oncoming vehicle.
