Another rider down :(


I work in Worcester, co worker came in and told me a bike just got hit right in front of my office. I didnt see it but he said a car pulled from a side street and the bike hit the car on the drivers side front. Ambulance is here, and the guy was sitting up on the sidewalk. Hope he is okay, feel pretty bad for him. I had a similar close call last wednesday the next street down where a car pulled in front of me but I stopped in time. Best wishes to a man down.

edit: Ambulance just left with lights and sirens

Speed limit is 35 on the road, so you figure cars go about 40-45. Wish I had more details, but I dont. Hopefully the dude is okay thats all

I'm an EMT and if the guy was sitting up thats a GREAT sign. EMT's and Paramedics ALWAYS take precaution and board people especially after an accident just for precaution and if they were lettin him sit up on the sidewalk that means that they believe there was no neck and head trauma which obviously is the worst thing. I hope he is ok and best wishes to him and his family!!
