A 32-year-old cyclist died after being hit by a car in Feira de Santana , 100 km from Salvador, on Tuesday (23). A security camera in the region recorded the moment of the accident.
The collision occurred on Avenida Getúlio Vargas, close to the intersection with Avenida Maria Quitéria.

Ademir Farias Oliveira was thrown over the car and fell onto the track. The bicycle he was using was completely destroyed.
Shortly after the accident, the car crashed into a bus that was passing through the area and into a pole. The case was confirmed by the Municipal Traffic Superintendency (SMT), but the agency did not detail the circumstances of the accident.
According to witnesses, the driver of the car felt ill and lost control of the vehicle. He was taken to a private hospital in the city, which was not named. There is no information about the driver's health status.

Payback. Fuck cyclists and their gay arm-signals. I loathe being stuck behind one of these pedalling clowns when I'm in the right lane, while the left lane is full and my only option is to slow down until able to pass these environmentally conscious fuckers who care SO MUCH about the environment while Taylor Swift emits more carbon in a few flights on her private jet(s) than they ever would, even if they pedalled the circumference of the world 50,000 times in a single year. Dieeeeeeeeee. Thank you very much. I'll paint your bike white and chain it to a pole nearest to the intersection where I ran your ass over as a sort of 'memorial'....A memorial to what a pretentious, spandex-wearing douche-bag you were!

A less car dependant neighborhood is much more enjoyable regardless of global emissions. Do you also oppose bike lanes?

No. Bike lanes are good.

The only cyclists I hate are the ones who hog the entire road when there's a clear bike lane with plenty of space. Going 15 mph on a 35-40mph road. If it's a residential area it's not as bad. Around my area though the issue isn't cyclists. It's multiple people walking in the street with the flow of traffic when there's a full 4 foot wide sidewalk. It's fuckin ridiculous. I've had close calls with people wearing full black clothes walking on the street at night in basically the center of the street.
