    Obviously, Lancaster needs to put in more bike lanes.

    Riding a bike during the day is risky enough. Riding a bike in the middle of the night is Russian Roulette.

    I feel sorry for the bicyclist and family. And I shouldn’t say it but it was probably a uninsured undocumented person driving the car

      I feel sorry for the uneducated “person” who felt the need to make an assumption that clearly has no truth behind it.
