I posted this in my car accident post, so it's somewhat hidden and I wanted everyone to see this, so here it is again...

Well the biking bad news continues. I just came across this story in FL. Maybe it's time for some of the bike companies to pool some money together and get some PSA's on the airwaves...

There is a news video link on the story. Wow, you should see the side of the SUV, it looks like another car hit it but actually it was all of these bikers hitting the side of the SUV.

Several bicyclists are injured after colliding with a vehicle.

According to Miami-Dade Fire Rescue, the bike riding club had a total of 40 members and were riding around a golf course located at 142 Avenue Southwest and 62 street, when a car pulled right in-front of them and struck them. The group of riders were unable to stop.

A total of 12 bicyclist were injured and were treated on the scene.

One bicyclist was air lifted to Jackson Memorial Hospital in critical conditions, the others were transported to near by hospitals.
