Cyclist hit by tanker truck so violent accident! - Video Dailymotion

I must say that is just wicked.

I can say that I would avoid roads like that as much as possible... and if I was on it, I would be much more careful in the lane crossing, probably holding all the way right until I could cut across the exit to the safety island.

The road has a poor design for bicycles. Here is a photo of the crash site from the video clip, and my crash analysis.



The tanker in red is in the right most lane.
The lane continues as a 3 lane road, with simply white markings delineating the turn lane and continuation lane.

The bikes are in the path marked in blue, which puts them in the middle of the traffic. They don't hold tight to the island (if they had, it would have been a much worse accident). Crash is at the red X.

The rider in blue must have known that some vehicles cut through intersection because he signals that he is moving right, but he never seems to turn his head (I don't see a mirror, but perhaps he had one, did he use it?) Even if he had looked, it would be difficult to determine whether a vehicle is turning or going straight.

If I had to be on the road, I would have probably taken the path in green, and might have stopped for the exit crossing. Anyway, it appears as if the rider in blue took a heavy hit (broken leg?), but survived.
