Police have charged a van driver after a man cycling on the O’Connor Street bike lanes was knocked to the ground Tuesday. It was the third collision involving a bike on O’Connor since the bike lanes opened two weeks earlier.
The crash happened at the corner of O’Connor and Waverley streets at about 3:30 p.m. A passing cyclist with a helmet camera recorded it and posted the video online.
The van driver has been charged with failing to yield the right of way, police said Wednesday.
There was one cyclist knocked down in the bike lanes on the day they opened and another near the same spot on Nov. 2.
Ottawa police confirmed the video of Tuesday’s incident is authentic. The cyclist was examined at the scene but didn’t need to be taken to hospital.
