Bikes Deja Vu: Another Cyclist Hit On Interstate

Posted by Scott Moore on Tue, Nov 6 at 10:55 AM

Jonathan Maus at BikePortland.org has the story: Another cyclist was hit on N. Interstate at Greeley this morning, at the same exact spot where Brett Jarolimek was killed.

According to witnesses, the cyclist—thankfully—didn’t sustain any life-threatening injuries, but she was taken away in an ambulance. From their on-scene reports, it sounds as if this was another case of the dangerous “right hook,” where a car makes a right turn and cuts off a bike traveling in the bike lane.
