New Yorker Caption Contest

Happy Holidays, bike folks!  

I thought we might get a few good captions from 'linkers for the current New Yorker contest.  Here's the image and there's a link to the magazine's site below.  I never come up with anything good for these, but I'm interested to see what you guys come up with.

There are some great suggestions here but I still think BikeSnobNYC's said it best: "Is the NYPD refusing to investigate your death too?"
