No more dead cyclists: join us on a memorial ride on Sunday 16th of August
There was a serious traffic accidence in Helsinki on Wednesday 12 Aug. According to some eyewitness reports a car intentionally cut in on a cyclist causing the cyclist to crash. The cyclist was seriously injured and later died. The driver fled from the scene immediately after the incident.
The police has managed to take the driver into custody but is currently silent about the details of incident. According to some sources the driver is being suspected of manslaughter and reckless driving.
Many fans of Tour de Helsinki are all too familiar with incidents like these. There is definitely something wrong in the Finnish traffic culture.
This incidence has brought people together in an unprecedented way. A memorial ride will be organised in Helsinki on Sunday 16 Aug, at 12:00-14:00, from Kiasma to Tullinpuomi. Similar events are being planned across the country. We hope that all friends of Tour de Helsinki will join these events. It is time to pull together and send a message to everybody that the current attitudes must change.
Things are moving fast now, but we will try to keep you updated on any developments in our Facebook feed:
