Bicycle Roulette in San Diego?

Pedicab Accident Leaves Tourist Dead

Monday, July 6, 2009 - For several months now KUSI's Michael Turko has been exposing big problems with pedicabs in downtown San Diego. Now Turko says a pedicab accident that apparently could have been avoided has taken the life of a visitor from Illinois.

City officials keep trying to tighten up the regulations on pedicab operators, but downtown residents says the situation is out of control. Here's a case where a foreign operator accused of violating several existing regulations lost control, and a tourist got killed. That's why a lot of people say riding in a pedicab downtown is like playing bicycle roulette.

What are the regulations in San Diego? Pop said his venue, Balboa park, is restricted and governed. This has to be more than driver error. It sickens me......

Did you read all the way down here? That's awesome. Thanks!
