Very sad indeed. My partner used to be a teacher and one of her pupils was killed in very similar circumstances. The poor girl became entangled in between the axle of the vehicle and she was virtually cut in two. She died very slowly over several hours with her parents by her side, all the doctors could do was sedate her and deal with the pain. The police closed the road and erected screens around the vehicle until she was gone and they were able to cut her body from the wreckage. We sometimes see her parents, I cannot imagine what their lives are like.
This is a minor side note, and it would not have made any difference in this case, but I travel to Amsterdam regularly and the have often wondered why you never see a cyclist wearing a helmet.
I also spent time this summer on a farm with dutch friends who breed horses, and again they never wear any protective head gear when they ride. Not even when they are teaching young children to ride.
