    Rider down Hiway 7 & Pine Valley Drive

    I was riding home from work on March 14th around 5:30pm or so....

    Saw people getting out of their cars and RUNNING towards the intersection. So I lane split to the intersection and parked my bike blocking a downed motorcycle. Dropped the kick stand down and saw a riding lying under a white SUV. Turns out some chevy impala cut off a biker on a red Ducati monster. The rider went over his handle bars and landed under the SUV.

    From what I gathered, the rider will be ok.

    To the rider:
    If you're on here, I was the guy who took care of you until the fire dept and paramedics showed up. I hope you get well soon.

    I actually rode through that intersection at 5:30pm to get my McD's (and encountering a cager that decided to play chicken with me or something on the way there) that day and didn't see a thing when I rode through.

    Regardless,

    and GWS rider.

    That intersection, and Woodbridge in general, is one of the worst areas for idiot cagers, I've found. It seems like a lot of the "kids" in the area driving mommy & daddy's fast/expensive cars feel like they've gotta prove something, and on multiple occasions I've nearly been run off the road or otherwise challenged by a cager.

    Best wishes to the rider, and go to hell cagers.

    As much as I try to avoid generalizing/judging people, this does seem all too often true in the area..

    Extremely humane of you to help that guy out - I was in a horrific accident on my bike almost 7 years ago. Very elderly man (legally blind) nailed me, nothing I could've done.

    If it wasn't for several people like you I may not have made it. I only hope that all of us will find that 'something' inside us should another fellow bike be down.

    Peace out.

    At the moment I reside between Ansley Grove and Pine Valley. I find that when lunch time or the end of the school day comes around, the kids from the high school there (Father Bressani) drive like idiots blowing through stop signs/red lights, and flying down residential streets going 80km/h+. Be careful around those times.

    You will often see them racing eachother down Ansley Grove (40/50 road).
