He was in a well-marked bike lane when an RTA bus beeped its horn multiple times and moved over into the lane, causing him to abruptly stop and maneuver out of the way so as to not be hit.
CLEVELAND, Ohio - Jakob VanSickle, who has advocated for safer cycling in Cleveland for 10 years as the Executive Director of Bike Cleveland, was almost hit by an RTA bus as he crossed the Detroit-Superior Bridge into Downtown Cleveland.
Buses, according to VanSickle, are required to allow cyclists to pass before merging into bike lanes to make their stops. However, VanSickle said that RTA had responded to his emails with a phone call and a promise to reinforce training with drivers regarding bus lanes.
