12 year old cyclist killed going to school

Finally found an article with details. Poor kid. Reads as if the driver didn't look right in her hurry to make a turn onto Byron Highway. Wonder if she'll get charged since he was riding against traffic before turning into the driveway.

since he was riding against traffic before turning into the driveway.

I wish people didn't think that this is somehow safer. (Not that riding with traffic is 100% safe either.)

Heartbreaking. The kid sounds like he was a pretty awesome dude, RIP.

"We have lost a brother in Scouting, an energetic young man who enjoyed camping, fishing and the outdoors," said Kenn Knittel of Boy Scout Troop 514.

"His enthusiasm will be missed dearly. Our hearts go out to the Hus and the other families coping with this tragic accident."

Burgess earned merit badges for canoeing, climbing, fish and wildlife, and Indian lore. He completed 27 nights of camping and 43 hours of service to the community."
