Thanks for the indictment Zoot Katz. I drive in the city and can
easily picture myself hitting a cyclist in that situation. Depending
on the distance ahead where the cyclist fell, it could be impossible
to avoid the peson.  Unless one drove over the bridge at an extremely
low speed which is both unexpected and possibly illegal on that
bridge.
