MoBikeFed comment: Yet another nonmotorized fatality in Missouri this year. Our condolences go to the family and friends of Ms. Calhoun.

This type of fatality is very, very preventable. We need to find the political will in Missouri to make the changes to our transportation system that will make this type of fatality a thing of the past.
