Drunk Driver Kills Spokane Bicyclist

When bicycles and cars meet, bicyclists never win. Monday night in Spokane, Washington, Scott Reckord was arrested on a vehicular homicide charge after failing a sobriety test and also a charge of felony hit and run, after killing a cyclist. The Spokane County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the bike rider as David Squires.

Bike riding is becoming increasingly popular and even necessary for some people during this economic downturn. Drivers need to pay special attention to pedestrians and cyclists who are not as easy to see as vehicles.
