gummibear Posted November 23, 2011 Share A cyclist has died after being hit by a car outside George on Tuesday, paramedics said. ER24 spokesperson Vanessa Jackson said the man (41) was travelling towards the Groot Brak area when he was hit by a car at around 5pm. The cyclist died at the scene from his injuries. Jackson said the driver, a 45-year-old woman, was treated for possible neck and back injuries and taken to Mediclinic George. Police were investigating. http://news.iafrica.com/sa/765061.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azonic Posted November 23, 2011 Share Find it funny how the driver always also has to have some kind of injury. Its like, "oh **** I just killed someone, I better make it look like I'm a victim as well". The only possibly injury she has must be bruising under her foot from pushing the petrol down so hard.

FlatCruiser Posted November 23, 2011 Share He was killed on the bridge crossing, the road narrows from NO shoulder when you cross over - you always just pray that there is no car from behing when crossing over - you are normally doing speeds of 65 - 70km/h. The cars have NO patience on this road! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieterg Posted November 23, 2011 Share Murder in the first degree, driving a loaded weapon and hitting a guy on a bike. But cyclists let us keep our side clean be visible and obey the road rules. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiny K Posted November 23, 2011 Share Murder in the first degree, driving a loaded weapon and hitting a guy on a bike. But cyclists let us keep our side clean be visible and obey the road rules. RIP +1. RIP cyclist. Bet you she developed injuries after realising that she may spend a little time in a police cell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubba Posted November 23, 2011 Share I understand motorists are impatient and genrerally are the causes of these accidents, but having an attitude that it is always the motorist is fairly close minded and unrealistic.Anything could have happened and until investigated she is as guilty/innocent as the cyclist. How many times have you come across people cycling like retards and you wonder how they have not been killed? RIP Rider.
