Wiggins hit by car

That just came across CNN...

Overnight hospitalization for observation--broken ribs, plus maybe another thing or two.

This should make drivers think twice... always blaming it on the cyclist! This time it was the world's best cyclist, pretty hard to blame him for being reckless and ignoring rules.

Dislocated his finger apparently.
It was one of the famous (for their awful driving) "white vans", but we don't know the circumstances yet.

I just wonder if Wiggo was wearing a helmet or not!

"Cycling safety campaigners fear effect of Bradley Wiggins crash" (Guardian) is a worthwhile article about the broader issues. And since this is the Guardian and not, say, Youtube, a significant percentage of the comments on the article are intelligent too.
