This article caught my eye

seems there had been complaints about this road layout before the accident.

Terrible ..... I know how confusing it is. Drove from Brussels to Genk a year ago and its very tiring trying to think about driving on the other side all the time.

If all four of them were in a hire car they would still all be dead.

Why make a big deal in that two bikes were involved?

Well said Steve. I totally agree.

I must say, Italy does have a very casual approach to all things highway related :(
