About 600 people participated in a biking event in Toronto to honor a 24-year-old cyclist who was fatally struck by a dump truck driver. The incident occurred after the cyclist merged into a westbound vehicle lane from the bike lane, is the fifth cyclist fatality in Toronto this year.
Coun. Dianne Saxe stated that the bike lane was obstructed by an unlawfully placed construction bin prior to the fatal accident. The city confirmed that no street occupation permit was issued for the location, emphasizing the requirement for proper permits and regular enforcement actions.
