    The picture in the article clearly shows there’s only a right and left lane. There is no room for turning lanes. There’s also no space for a vehicle. Space for a bike doesn’t make it a lane.

      What part of “you already conceded that point” did you not understand?

      But hey, you want to claim there was only one lane now? Fine. In that case, the cyclist was the vehicle lawfully occupying it and the ambulance must have swung wide to the left for some reason, out of the lane, and then back into it. Either way, it crossed the path of and collided with a vehicle in that lane. You are not entitled to deny this point.

      1. Cyclists are traffic.
      2. The ambulance was making a right turn.
      3. The ambulance hit the cyclist from the side.
      4. Therefore, the ambulance was turning across traffic, because no traffic means no cyclist to hit. QED.
