I found this article in the Olympian today about a cyclist who was hit and the driver fled the accident.
I am sad for Jason Bailey and his family and friends. I hope he gets well soon, and is able to fully recover from his injuries. I am glad that someone was able to make an anonymous tip and perhaps have saved Jason's life. It made a difference for sure. I am glad that someone was there to watch out and do the right thing. I would very much like to follow this story as it goes along, and hopefully Mr. Scott will spend a long time in jail for doing this.

Thanks, Tschida. I know you like F1 and you are a religious man. But, what's the significance of your username? I'd heard that name before and a live.com search turned up Tim, a ump in MLB.

Olympian Advert
Submitted by Robert Whitlock on Thu, 02/28/2008 - 1:29pm.That's the first time I have ever seen an advertisement from the Olympian's website posted to Olyblog. It's nice to see your well wishing sentiments about the seriously injured bicyclist. Tschida, will you please remove the Olympian advert from your post?
I was thinking about writing a post about a recent experience that I had with being hit by a car. Fortunately it was not a major incident, but it was about six inches away from being quite serious. Even though the car hit me, it suffered considerable more damage that either I or my bicycle did.
Without a sense of caring there can be no sense of community.
