Killer Cyclist jailed

Our goal is to send a message to cyclists about safety, GascDon said. Just
because you are riding a bicycle doesn’t mean all bets are off. All of the
rules of the road that apply to everyone else apply to you, too.

A software engineer from San Francisco, Bucchere had been riding recklessly and
had run three red lights when he struck Hui as he and his wife crossed a street
in the Castro District on March 29, 2012, prosecutors said.

Under the unusual plea deal last week, Chris Bucchere, 37, would not
serve any jail time and instead would be sentenced to three years of
probation and sentenced to 1,000 hours of community service in the
death of Sutchi Hui of San Bruno, District Attorney George Gascon
said.

I have fixed your subject line for you.

I would hope that if a similar event happened in the UK the cyclist
would serve time for the killing.
