all of these have been just a few minutes from the apartment i just moved out of. i guess i'm glad to be away from there.
here's word on the condition of the driver: the driver is currently reported to be a cowardly murderous asshole

So now do they put up signs directing bicycles away from these two streets?

I hope to all hell that either
(a) KDKA has a lazy template for motor-vehicle collisions that they forgot to edit for the fact that one of the vehicles was a bike, or
(b) they actually bothered to wonder if the driver was drunk, texting, etc.

Doesn't Braddock have the "big brother" cameras? Any news if they can use them in this case?

I am not sure how far up Braddock they go but if the driver went through Regent Square after it's a good possibility he was shown on camera.

Any update on the swissvale bicyclist?

Any word on this? Hopefully a "no news is good news" situation, since the media isn't as interested when nobody dies.
