Similar thing happened to a friend of mine riding alone yesterday on Longboat Key, FL., reknowned for very old drivers at this time of year. Friend in question riding at about 18mph in bike lane when old lady in big car turns right directly in front of her. My friend sustained a serious knee injury as well as other cuts and scrapes. Driver got out and stood looking as if paralysed in shock. Witness had to call 911. Police ticketed driver.
