    Look at the picture in the article and read the story. The biker was trying to ride past the ambulance near the curb as the ambulance was turning.

    The biker felt entitled to do whatever he wanted instead of waiting his turn and got himself ran over.

      You’re right, this fucking cyclist had the audacity to be riding in the road, which is clearly designed for automobiles. Pedestrians and cyclists need to stay in their designated zones, it’s not a motorists responsibility to drive safely. /s

        In the road isn’t a problem if you stay in the lane where you belong. The cyclist tried passing on the shoulder cause he didn’t want to obey the laws.

      It’s called a right-hook. Cars pass bicycles, then turn right immediately in front of them, causing the cyclist to hit the car. Quite a few cyclists have been killed this way.

      Car brain drivers then blame the cyclist.

      You mean the part of the article where it says the ambulance “turned into him”?

      You’re making assumptions based on vague wording in the article and your preconceived notions of cyclist behavior. You don’t actually know what happened.
