Not much can be done when an impaired driver runs down a bicyclist. You have a guy exercising/getting into shape, not using gas, not producing pollution, doing all the right things mowed down by someone who should not have been on the road. I feel sorry for the family/friends and will feel even sorrier when not much will happen to vehicle driver.

Now if I could figure out if a bicycle is a vehicle or a pedestrian when they are on the sidewalk

Having bicyclists NOT stop for stop signs, ride against the traffic flow, and never signal their turns makes them tough to avoid. Stupid thing about it is if they are in an accident with a car, they always lose….in the sense of physical injury.

Not sure how Sioux Falls riders behave, but in a city with a 50,000 student university, I repeatedly see all these things.
