Dear editor:
At about 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 18, while making a left hand turn on my bike, I was hit by a car at the intersection of Riverside Drive and Mount Seymour Parkway. The driver continued on and did not stop to see if I was alright.
My thanks go out to the RCMP, the emergency responders for their assistance, the bus rider who called 911, the drivers who stopped to see if I was okay and the couple who found the car involved and photographed the licence plate.
As a cyclist I am very aware of the dangers posed by traffic, and I try and take measures to make sure those around me are aware of my intentions.
What I do not understand is hitting someone and not stopping and seeing if they are alright.
