It seems there have been more bicycling fatalities in the area lately, the most recent being a hit and run in Silver Spring - authorities are still looking for the driver. An incident in Colorado involved a teen-aged driver text messaging while driving. New York City has seen a spike in accidents and mixed response from the city (transportation officials who encourage cycling and a police force that discourages it). There are enough injuries for a local law firm to specialize in them. So, stay on the lookout since few drivers are looking out for you.
