Blaming Cyclists, Invisibilising Drivers: How Motonormativity Shapes Swiss Media Collision Reports In Swiss media reports on collisions between cyclists and motorists, cyclists tend to be foregrounded, while motorists are often rendered invisible. Such reporting implicitly blames cyclists and reinforces motonormativity.
