This happened last year, but it’s a reminder that “stray bullets” (i.e. moving vehicles) are still a danger to everyone.

  • When this happened it was all over Chicago biking twitter. If I recall correctly there eventually emerged a video of the driver running a red light and plowing through the pedestrian island into the pole. If someone was on the pedestrian island at the time they would’ve been killed. This crosswalk has been extremely dangerous for years and there’s been lots of protests and action to try to get the city to fix it.
