Shit. I gotta scrub this mental image. Saw a cyclist or maybe a pedestrian tangled up under the rear wheels of a tour bus on my lunch walk. I looked away as soon as I realized what I was sort of seeing, so I am not sure which it was. This was before emergency personnel arrived and there was just a traffic cop who had been in charge of that intersection standing there blowing her whistle furiously at all the cars that were trying to drive around. Nothing for me to do for that guy under there.

She's got to feel some responsibility since that probable death happened in her intersection while she was directing traffic. I hate it when cops direct traffic in intersections. They are not good at it and everyone gets all panicky and behaves erratically.
