In St. Petersburg, a motorcyclist, traveling at a speed of about 100 km / h, knocked down a cyclist on the road. This was announced on July 18 by a source of Izvestia.

The accident got into the surveillance camera area. The footage shows a man on a bicycle crossing the street near a pedestrian crossing. He decided to move to the other side in front of a slow-moving bus, and a motorcycle flew out from behind him at high speed and hit him.

As the victim's brother told Izvestia, his relative is an extreme cyclist who has been riding for more than 20 years. That day, he was on his way to a friend's house to celebrate his birthday. The victim's side has no claims against the motorcyclist.

"The only thing my brother was wrong about was that he didn't dismount from his bike on the zebra and that was it. The biker was flying, he had more than a hundred speed, he didn't even see him. I personally talked to the biker, he says: I just haven't seen him at all," said the man.
