In what could have been a tragic incident this morning, a frum biker driving in Monsey, NY was struck by a vehicle, sending the biker flying off his cycle.
The incident took place at Vincent Road and Ellish Parkway and was captured on a surveillance camera.
Boruch Hashem, the biker is said to be doing well, with no serious injuries.
WATCH:
Ha ha. Limaaseh it looks funny. The way he flips in the air. Could probably make it to YouTube funny fails.
You people are so gruesome. You are known as a frum news channel. What’s your matzav, obviously chinuch is not important to you. Scaring people’s minds with videos of people being killed and hurt.
As bad as I feel for this biker, by all accounts he was wrong to come in at a high speed into the intersection.
Refuah Shleimah!
Boy is he lucki.Helment good. But HES on the wrong side of the road, stay right!!! A intersection means LOOK 1st.
Move to Israel and be safe.
Based on the clip, the biker is 100% at fault. He blew right thru the intersection. BH that he is OK,
but he needs to learn about being more aware.
Looks like that is a completely uncontrolled intersecion with no stop signs or anything. Scary… At least the kid was wearing a helmet…
The car does not even slow down. I am guessing that maybe the driver at that moment was bending down to get something or maybe he turned around to get something from the backseat.
Why in the world should he slow down? The biker came right in front of him. The driver had the right of way.
Praying everyone is okay… Personally I take offense at your describing the biker as frum, biking is not a yeshivish thing to do, so calling him a frum biker is sort of a tarti disasri
Okay, it’s good to know that he is Frum. Thanx. That changes the whole dynamic.
Boruch Hashem the driver of the bicycle wasn’t seriously hurt. While there is no visible stop sign, approaching an intersection requires caution and slowing down. The driver of the bicycle didn’t slow down or even anticipate traffic. When you act arrogant and entitled you get petch.
In line with a lot of other people here, the cyclist should have been on the right side of the street where he belonged. The cyclist was coming into a tea intersection, meaning his road ended. I don’t understand why there is no stop sign, or any kind of sign, at that corner. It could have just as easily been a car ,although hopefully drivers of cars have more brains.
1) The bicyclist and car driver were BOTH on the wrong side of the road.
2) Had the bicyclist been on the right side, the driver would have seen had more distance to stop.
3)The driver did not slow down until impact, which shows he must have been on the phone or otherwise distracted, not watching where he was going.
4)So, this is a matter of TWO reckless people.
5)The bicyclist was also endangering pedestrians by going so fast on the wrong side of the street, as someone crossing might not think to look in that direction.

Where was the biker going? He should have turned when he saw the car, not continued straight.
Something is weird here. When you look at this intersection on google maps there are no stop signs either way
That’s why you pay the salary of your local politician. They are supposedly being paid to take care of these safety issues. All these paid employees are only focused on gay rights and a woman being allowed to murder her baby.

So you’re probably offended by the frum balei -agolos of years ago. Driving horses and donkeys. Halevei many of us would be as frum as they were.
Although the biker was wrong The driver is always guilty in a pedestrian accident
