A bicycle rider is in critical condition after crashing into a car at the intersection of Fountain Street and Central Avenue.
At about 12:15 p.m. Monday a bike rider attempted to turn left at the intersection of the two streets, according to Westville top cop Sgt. Renee Dominguez.
The rider, who did not heed the red light, slammed into the passenger side of a sports utility vehicle, or SUV, that was making its way through the intersection headed toward downtown on Fountain Street, Dominguez said.
Police officers had closed Fountain Street from Alden to Central Avenue, holding the scene through much of the afternoon. No one else was hurt in the collision. The bike rider, whose identity was not yet available Monday afternoon, was transported to Yale-New Haven Hospital, Dominguez said.

3/5,
Do your own research.
And no, your point isn't to say that one person was struck by cyclists. Your point is to exaggerate its significance by bringing it up as frequently as possible in the context of conversations regarding vehicular danger. Just stop it
What about the action of the above Biker.Do your own research.This makes my point.I wonder will he get a ticket for not Heeding?

The reason there's no insurance requirement on bicycles is that they don't carry anywhere near the risk of causing serious property damage, catastrophic injury, or death that automobiles do.
Still do not think Bicycles do not need insurance/ Again will he be give a ticket.If the car driver do not heed Heor She would have got a ticket.
