cyclist injured

Wow. Drove past the police picking up after the driver of a BMW hit a cyclist yesterday, and am amazed to see "cyclist injured". That car looked like it had rolled over, the top was so caved in. I'll be watching this one, I ride that stretch a lot, the shoulders are huge, the traffic is fairly fast, but it's near a sweeping turn and close to a reduction in speed limits, so I want to see more about what the circumstances were.

It takes some serious force to damage a BMW that way. I'm glad to see the cyclist survived.
