Very sad.
"Witnesses say the cyclist was crossing the on-ramp from Riverside Boulevard
If he was on a bicycle, then he shouldn't have been in the marked crosswalk. That seems like an odd observation.
"The use of a helmet, reflective clothing and proper lighting equipment could have possibly helped to prevent a collision such as this."
Although I'm firmly on the pro-helmet side of the debate, I'm not sure what a helmet could have done to prevent this, or any, collision.
"This situation is an unfortunate but clear example of the benefit of using safety equipment while riding a bicycle"
Since there's no comment on the driver's actions, I assume he was traveling at or below the speed limit.
