#CarWeek #MontereyCounty Thanks to California Highway Patrol, who took a hit - quite likely preventing harm to someone else. "A Porsche was stopped after going 90 mph in a 55 mph zone. After the driver was pulled over, the Porsche backed into a CHP patrol vehicle, CHP alleges.” - Ricardo Tovar, #KSBW https://www.ksbw.com/article/porsche-four-times-over-legal-limit-backs-patrol-car/73438667 #SpeedLimits #SafeStreets #LawEnforcement #TrafficSafety #DrunkDriver #DUI #alcohol

Our sympathy to the family and friends of Linda Theresse Munoz of Salinas.
Linda suffered fatal injuries after being struck on her bicycle by a truck, and then by two additional vehicles, while biking in Salinas on March 14.
We have no details on this collision so can’t comment about the circumstances except to say: #KSBW’s report https://www.ksbw.com/article/bicyclist-struck-killed-salinas-california/70760894 mentions she was biking “in dark clothing.” High visibility apparel is not required by law, and while we do suggest it (https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-tourists/more-bicycle-safety-gear), being visible can’t protect you from drivers who are texting, speeding, under the influence, etc.—as we experienced and pointed out last week https://sfba.social/@bikemonterey/116219787478611800.
We don’t know if Linda’s bicycle had the equipment required by California law for biking in the dark (see #9 in our Calif bike law summary https://bikemonterey.org/wp-content/uploads/Bike-law-summary-2025.pdf).
