Looks like first major bike accident of the season:
http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews/Cyclist-struck-by-vehicle-in-Polo-Park-area-94955594.html
Although something doesn't seem right with the description/story. It's written to make it seem like the headphones were the issue.
However, it says the cyclist turned off the off ramp as well, so why would she be cutting in front of the vehicle? Was she in the wrong lane? Facts are minimal, but seems like one of the following situations:
a) Cyclist in right lane, heading straight - gets right hooked by the car.
b) Cyclist in wrong lane? makes lane change in front of car and gets hit
c) Cyclist riding on sidewalk, crosses off ramp and gets hit
Am I missing something or does the story seem like it is missing something. The way it's written doesn't seem like the accident would have happened that way.
But, stranger things have happened.
