This crash is along Pittsburgh’s “high injury network” — the 10% of roads where 83% of serious crashes occur.
That’s why we call it a crash, not an accident.
We’re getting in touch with this bicyclist to make sure they’re okay.
CW: crash

To summarize:
In the first ~10 minutes of questioning, the judges didn't understand why it's safer for bicyclists to take the lane rather than weave in and out of the shoulder.
After being presented with safety data, it felt like they got it.

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court is currently debating whether bicyclists have to pull over to let vehicles pass, or if they may continue to take the lane. Tune in: https://t.co/Jon7FvJBLC

Commonwealth: "yes"
If they side with the Commonwealth, this will be a terrible precedent for Pennsylvania.
BikePGH is committed to defending cyclists' rights.
A case in PA Supreme Court could set a dangerous precedent and go against long standing safety guidelines established by PennDOT. 🧵
