19th Street Tuesday

DCist makes it sound much worse, although I can understand the urgency with a possible head injury.

Quote:

A cyclist is facing life-threatening injuries after a car crash in Dupont.

D.C. Fire and EMS transported the cyclist to a local hospital as a Priority 1 case, meaning life-threatening, critical injuries, according to spokesperson Oscar Mendez. The incident happened around 1:15 p.m. and units responded to the scene at the 1100 block of 19th Street NW at around 1:19 p.m.

Washington Post link, which at least as of now, doesn’t give much information.https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/dr-gridlock/wp/2016/06/28/cyclist-critically-injured-after-being-struck-by-car-near-dupont-circle/#comments

Is this perhaps the first very serious accident to occur to a Cabi rider?

It may be the most serious accident so far, but I don’t think it’s the first serious accident. There have been a couple (like, literally one or two) other pretty bad ones, IIRC.

There was a serious accident on H St in 2014. http://dcist.com/2014/05/cyclist_seriously_injured_by_hit-an.php
