Another cyclist back wheel hit on circuit in durban this morning

In the dedicated cycling lane [emoji57]

 

I am not surprised...the cycle lane is like the red carpet (bus lane) ...VIP motorist seem to feel it is their right.

my cousin and I were on the circuit yesterday evening, during the lane closure times and he noticed another cyclist almost being taken out just under the M4 Blue Lagoon bridge.

Kevin Minter Brown must be smarting right about now, swarmy grin wiped clean off his face. Car gone check, fat salary gone check, media reputation(most valuable asset in his biz) gone check.

 

With great power comes great responsibility, he's been in the game long enough to know where the line is, joking or making fun of people's tragic deaths (especially so shortly afterwards) is way out of order. Even the most dim witted hubber would know better than to post what he did.

 

I would imagine for all intents and purposes as of now he might as well have leprosy, he'll eventually get over it but on the positive side I'm sure he's learnt a valuable life lesson.

 

 

Final check point is arguable I'm afraid... just look at how many loud mouth 'celebs' (inverted as I really don't see him as a celeb - maybe on Umdloti beach, but until his name popped up here I hadn't heard of him in ages) keep their jobs within the industry, just simply move house. Someone will hire him based on this publicity, albeit negative and insensitive.

 

So Mr Brown is back on air. Now plying his trade at Durban Youth Radio in the mornings. 105.1Fm

Hey, you can't make a thread like this come back up in the active topics section just like that! I genuinely thought there was a new accident and two more of the tribe had been taken! Eissshhh.

 

P.S. Brown who?.....

* The hit and run case of Durban cyclist Richard da Silva, who was knocked over and killed by an alleged drunk driver last year, was adjourned in the Durban Regional Court yesterday. Omesh Ramnarain (32) is on trial on charges of drunk driving and culpable homicide for the deaths of Da Silva (46) and his cycling partner Jared Dwyer (36). Ramnarain's attorney Devin Moodley said the adjournment was necessary so he could obtain an expert report.
