Still undefeated.

A 30-year-old bicyclist died Wednesday (Feb. 20) after a collision with a garbage truck on Carrollton Avenue, New Orleans police said. The victim’s name has not been released. The waste disposal truck was traveling north in the 1000 block of Carrollton near the Freret Street intersection shortly before 9 a.m. when it collided with the bicyclist, who was also moving northbound, NOPD said in a news release.

The man was taken to a hospital where he later died, the release said.
Still undefeated.

As someone who knows what it's like to run over a "cyclist" machines will always be undefeated.
Anyone who rides a bike in NOLA is crazy imo.

Probably a smart idea in New Orleans.

I see there is a dedicated bike lane. I'm guessing the garbage truck swerved out of its lane into the bike lane and hit the biker?

Well I guess Jesuit will get their pedestrian bridge approve now.

Not necessarily. Garbage truck could have been making a right turn. Biker should have yielded instead of running into the back of it.
I'm sure there are witnesses.

If the garbage truck was making it right turn, it should have yielded to the biker.

So bikers can just run into turning vehicles? How in the world is a garbage truck supposed to see a guy behind it.
Bike lanes in this city are retarded.

I hit a car in that exact location several years back. A car sped past me and made a quick right turn in front of me. I about ended up in the back seat of the convertible. 100% the drivers fault.
