Sad to say
But I can't believe this doesn't happen more. FYI, I was a bicycle commuter in Portland for years. For several of those years, the commute was between 15 and 20 miles daily. For a couple of years, it put me in the same spot were this guy was killed. One of the reasons I stopped was Trimet drivers. They're careless, clueless and dangerous. I've had several crowd the bike lane while I was in, passing me withing inches. I've also have them speed up to get in front of me, swerve into the bike lane, and nail the brakes (too many times to count). I could go on, but I won't. Everyone who rides in PDX knows what I'm talking about. I always said it was just a matter of time before one of these sanctioned road ragers killed a cyclist. Sometimes it sucks to be right.
