Long Wheel Base Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Shame, RIP.Amazing how the Mayor is there, there is a media briefing, people where reporting the erratic driving before hand. Different mentality to here.
Halfdoesyn Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Shame, RIP.Amazing how the Mayor is there, there is a media briefing, people where reporting the erratic driving before hand. Different mentality to here.Yes, one wonders if here in SA there would have been the same high-level response... RIP, sad news.
Bateleur1 Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Yes, one wonders if here in SA there would have been the same high-level response... RIP, sad news. If it was not the high-level respons that actually drove over you. Think the Ferreira (I think) kid that got run over by the blue light brigade some time ago.
Pall Catt Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 I know this incident seems more like a single erratic individual, but I did a bike tour across the USA and Michigan really stood out as having the worst drivers by a long shot.

bikebloke Posted June 10, 2016 Posted June 10, 2016 Over 600 bicyclists on South Westnedge Ave. during a Ride of Silence through downtown Kalamazoo Wednesday, June 8, 2016. The event marked the remembrance of the five bicyclists who were killed and four injured on North Westnedge Avenue Tuesday. (Mark Bugnaski/Kalamazoo Gazette) Imagine if we could get this together everytime one or two of us dies on the road. Pity we don't .. http://www.mlive.com/news/kalamazoo/index.ssf/2016/06/arraignment.html
