Did anyone hear what happened? I assume the person didn't die (I heard him 
(sounded like 
a "him") writhing in pain when I rode past) or it would have made the news. I 
was almost 
mowed down by a Metro bus driver in an SUV driving about 20 mph within a foot 
of the fire 
engine as I was crossing.

With two horrific accidents on this "bike blvd." in such a short span I think 
it begs the question 
that putting up signs and nothing more may be making the situation more unsafe 
than before.

I would suggest the signs be removed unless/until the street is properly 
modified, or at least 
turn the stop signs the other way. The current situation may well be giving 
some bicycles a 
false sense of security with now tragic results.
