OT Unintentional Newspaper Humour re bicycle accident

Hi there.

I saw a Kitchener, Ontario, Canada newspaper today that had a short
article regarding a transport truck/bicycle accident on Highway 6.

While there is nothing funny about the accident or the bicyclist being
injured their was some thing that made every one i have showed the
article to laugh.

The 2 nd last paragraph of the articles states:

"The truck driver, a 41-year old Burlington, man was not injured."

What every one I showed the article to found humourous is the idea
that a transport truck driver could be physically injured in a
transport truck/bicycle collision. Unfortunately the cyclist was
seriously injured but is in stable condition. He was wearing dark
clothing at the time of the accident which occurred shortly after 6:15
a.m. which means it was totally dark then with no street lights. There
is no mention if the cyclist was using lights of any sort.

Cheers from Peter

Since the article is fairly short here it is as it appeared in the
paper:

a 23-year old Palmerston cyclist is in serious condition in a London
