{Melb} Cinelli vs Territory - Kew Junction this morning.

[eddiec]

Just wanting to do the roll call of regular eastern suburbs cyclists here to check we're all well, and not the poor individual who appears to have collected or been collected by a Territory at Kew Junction this morning, at about 8am.

Looked nasty (as in being careful not to move the guy), but as there was another cyclist there, plus someone who looked like they knew what they were doing medically, and could hear an ambulance on the way, I moved on...

Everyone here safe?

Not me, and personally I reckon the intersection at Cotham Rd and High
St is worse than the junction. People coming from the west and blindly
turning right without even a thought of giving way.

Statistically, I think Kew Junc. was the worst location in the area for incidents involving cyclists. Has anything been done to the area to make it safer?
