Driver of Car that Killed Cyclist Wins Verdict from Town, Race Director

A Virginia woman who was driving the car involved in a fatal crash with a bicycle racer has been awarded $350,000 for mental and emotional trauma and for vehicle damage, reports the Roanoke Times. The crash killed a 30-year-old race participant who allegedly ran a stop sign and collided with the woman's car. The town-sponsored race did not have personnel or signs alerting motorists about the race course. According to the Roanoke Times, the bicyclist's family also won a verdict from the town and the race director in a prior lawsuit.
