I drive that street everyday, twice a day. The worst part of this story - that shopping plaza isn't even open yet. It's a brand new Publix going up. There is no reason to be going in there yet.

I was in the traffic light but it happened so fast! One of the passengers is student of Ocoee HS but she will be OK.

All indications in this accident point to the biker being at fault. The bikers need to learn how to ride a bike. It ain't rocket science.

I worked with the biker, Thomas Darby. He was a very responsible driver. From the mouths of the police to the people I work with, he was NOT at fault. The lady turning in to the shopping center ,that isnt even open yet, admitted she did not see him when she turned. She was making an illegal u-turn to drop her kid off to walk to school so she wouldnt be late to work. He will be missed regardless of whether or not he was at fault.
