The right way and the wrong way. (sidewalk)

In Tempe you have the right way, and the wrong way.
The two pedacyclists even have the right of way, crossing a driveway. The other pedacyclist is another story.

Yes I am aware people can't buy a flashlight and affix it their bikes. One thing at a time.

story


TEMPE, AZ -- A fire department official said a bicyclist suffered critical injuries when he was hit by a vehicle and trapped underneath Thursday night.

The 18-year-old was struck near Broadway Road and McClintock Drive in Tempe around 6:15 p.m.

According to Tempe Police Officer Aaron Colombe, when officers arrived they found the bicyclist's legs pinned under the car.

Colombe said several officers and firefighters lifted the car off the man.

He was reportedly conscious when transported from the scene.

Colombe said the bicyclist was riding on the sidewalk eastbound, against the flow of traffic, when he was hit by a car coming out of an apartment complex.

He said the bicyclist could be cited because it is against city ordinance to be riding against the flow of traffic.
