Did a bicycle got hit on Scott and Derry this morning?

I saw a few cop cars, fire truck and ambulance there, and a bicycle on the road. Didn't see much as cop cars and cops standing around were blocking the view, but it looked like a bicycle was hit by a minivan. If so, I really hope the cyclist is doing alright.

I've seen so many drivers turning right from Scott on that intersection who only look on their left for oncoming traffic. Most don't pay attention if a cyclist or a pedestrian is coming from their right side. With schools off and roads emptier, it seems some of those drivers have thrown caution off completely. Saw a couple more such crazies on Derry this morning as well.

I know, without knowing full details, it's easy to assume blame the car driver. Maybe that cyclist was at fault this morning. But I really hope the drivers pay more attention and stay more aware... No matter who's fault it is, it's the cyclist/pedestrian who will suffer in such interaction.
