Following assumes the cyclist was not crossing the highway, which does not seem too likely if the mapped location is correct.

It is a four lane highway with full break down lanes added to each side (some call them shoulders). I doubt that a ninja would have been taking the lane, so how the hell did this woman hit the cyclist regardless of ninja or not. Did she have her headlights off while speeding down the shoulder?

Article mentions no helmet, lights, reflectors on the cyclist but fails to even remotely note how the lady did her stupid driver trick.
