We've unfortunately had another death, this Thursday. This time it was a hit and run. It was in a heavily trafficked area, so this time exactly what happened is well known and was 100% the fault of the driver. S/he was turning left across traffic and failed to look for the cyclist who was in the bike lane. Apparently the SUV pretty much dove through a gap in traffic to make his/her left and hit the gas so hard they squealed the tires. The cyclist who was crossing the intersection didn't have a chance. The driver then chose to run, making it all the worse.

(and creepily I left a store about 2 blocks away about 5 min before this accident happened.... I'm feeling a little Johnny on the spot...)
