Posted by Gold_12th on Sat Jul 26 14:44:40 2014, in response to 2 seprate bike collisions with buses in Manhattan, posted by Gold_12th on Sat Jul 26 12:02:33 2014. A woman bicycling through rush-hour East Side traffic in Manhattan Thursday was crushed by an MTA bus when she tried to swerve around a yellow cab, officials and witnesses said.Heather Wilhelm, 33, riding without a helmet, was riding up Madison Avenue around 10:30 a.m. when she tried to squeeze between the taxi, which was turning right on East 62nd Street and the M2 bus, witnesses and police said. “She was riding like a bike messenger,” said a source, “driving erratically … weaving in and out of traffic.” Wilhelm appeared to hit the rear of the cab and then fall under the bus’ rear wheels. She was taken to New York Presbyterian Hospital with a fractured skull and pelvis and listed in critical condition. “I saw her fly past us at the corner,” said witness Anthony Bischoff. “Moments later I saw cops and she was lying on the ground. I was in shock, all that blood coming from her head.” http://nypost.com/2014/07/24/woman-struck-by-bus/ |
