Bicyclist Killed By Dump Truck Suit Settled

A lawsuit by the estate of a bicyclist killed by a dump truck has been settled the Seattle Times reports, "Family of Seattle Cyclist Killed By Dump Truck Settles Lawsuit." The bicyclist, Bryce Lewis a 19 year old Colorado man, was killed when a dump truck suddenly turned in front of him and another bicyclist, who were both riding in a marked bike lane. The accident later provoked a demonstration through the Seattle streets to promote bicyclist safety.

In Kentucky, bicyclists have the same rights and responsibilities on the streets and roads as cars, trucks and motorcycles.
