So far, not one comment on the driver of the truck that hit them.
“Authorities said the truck driver remained on the scene and commercial units were called to inspect the vehicle’s brakes, tires and overall function following the 9:40 a.m. crash.
Nevada Department of Transportation spokesman Tony Illia said the truck allegedly hit a safety escort vehicle that was following the group of about 20 bicyclists. Officials had initially reported that four people were injured, not including those who died.
The group was on an informal ride to celebrate one of the bicyclist’s retirement, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.
Witnesses told authorities the bike riders were struck by the box truck after it crossed into the bicycle lane.
Highway Patrol officials said the driver wasn’t believed to have been impaired at the time of the crash.”
Driver was released, cooperated with investigators, and impairment does not appear to be an issue, officials said.
Look at the top pic. Bicycle debris are all over traffic lanes. Based on the only evidence available, I’d say they were moving dangerously slow in traffic lanes and got plowed by the truck.
