The operator of MV1, Baruch Ticho, stated that he was traveling Northbound on Waverly Avenue and came to a complete stop at the stop sign before attempting to take a left turn onto Washington Street. Mr. Ticho stated that he did not see the bicyclist at anytime because she was wearing all dark clothes and collided with her while attempting to turn. The bicyclist, Ellen Messing, stated that she was traveling East on Washington Street in the marked bike lane and believed MV1 saw her and was letting her pass. The MV continued on after stopping at the stop sign and t boned her bicycle. Ms. Messing had no visible injuries but stated she had leg pain and was transported to the BI.
