After reviewing the available information, my prime suspect here is the trees that are blocking the sight lines on the north side or Raymond Road. The blocked sight lines are obvious from the news video.
I give it a 70% chance that the bicyclist failed to stop, influenced in part due by relatively low (3500 AADT) traffic count, and in part by the lack of clear sight lines to roadway traffic on Raymond Road. Why didn’t those trees get removed when the path went in?

Of course, who needs statistics, let's just make up some numbers. (btw, Grant, is that a purple Beetle in your avatar?)
