Anyway, the driver swerved over and hit the victim in the bike lane "for
unknown reasons" then drove on.  He eventually did call 911 however.

 I tried your trick, but didn't need it. I was able to read the entire article.
 I'm amazed that the crime is classed as a misdemeanor. It's been said that if you want to murder someone, be sure to do it using your car.
 In my view, a person who kills someone with their car should never, ever be allowed to drive again.

generally agree with you. That's a broad demographic and from all across the nation.
