Roadside accident shrines always struck me as kinda ghoulish. I definitely wouldn't want one if I got killed by a car.

if a driver kills me, don't put up a ghost bike, put up a fight against other people dying in the same way.

or maybe do put up a ghost bike, but put it in the middle of the fucking road along with a sign to protest the fact that it was allowed to happen.

Same. There is a gravestone close to where i live with 3 heads on it. It were 3 teenagers borrowing one of their dads BMW and they all raced to their death. Absolutely horrible, and because it was also a very well ridden road by other cars and cyclists, so it was a wonder that they didn't took anyone else. The persons dad also committed suicide over it a little bit later. This was like 13 years ago and it's just there as a reminder for all that. Gor whom?
