I also noted the lack of coverage for this horrible event. It is odd about the coverage of a non-event accident when a cyclist was killed with very little coverage. I saw that article and became a bit miffed by it.
The intersection where this incident occurred is one of the busiest in the area for cyclists. It is not as if a bicycle is never encountered there. I almost wish the driver would have been a DUI instead of a very nice 64 year old woman with her grandkids in the car. Distracted driving is probably the cause.
