Ride of Electric Unicycle (!) killed...hit and run.

https://www.sanjoseinside.com/news/u...ay-identified/

Not a lot of detail but this article was in today's San Jose Mercury.

I wonder if by "electric unicycle" they mean one of those one-wheel
skateboard thingies.

Anyway...another pointless death just because you want to ride a cycle of
some sort. Sigh.

It happened at 9:55 PM and the rider FELL of his machine and then was struck and killed by the vehicle and whose driver then fled the scene. I wonder if the rider was wearing dark clothing as he rode along in the traffic lane?

Not a bad part of town. Near the accident site, you can get this cute 1,300 sf house for only $1.4M. Smoking deal! https://www.redfin.com/CA/San-Jose/1...8/home/1743514

Perhaps the moral is "don't fall off in front of a car" :-)
