Bicyclist's Life Hangs in the Balance After Multiple Vehicle Collisions
A bicyclist in Lincoln, Nebraska, suffered potentially life-threatening injuries after being struck by a vehicle at the intersection of Northwest 17th and West O Streets. The bicyclist, a 34-year-old Lincoln resident, was attempting to cross West O Street when a Mitsubishi traveling eastbound hit them. The intersection lacks a marked crosswalk, and the driver of the Mitsubishi, a 36-year-old Crete resident, was unharmed and has not been cited. This incident adds to a series of serious accidents involving bicyclists and pedestrians on West O Street in the past two years.
