Sadly, that’s exactly where bike lanes were installed in 2017 after a years-long community process, only to be removed following complaints from drivers used to zooming along the street.
It’s impossible to know whether this tragedy could have been prevented if the bike lanes were still there. But their removal will almost certainly mean Los Angeles will be liable for her death.
I wonder; generally speaking, a newborn is covered by their mother’s insurance for the first 30 days. But with mom dead… I would think they still are, and this is sadly something that happens often enough there’s a standard policy on it.
I hope they’re covered. Such an awful situation.
