We are now a form of pedestrian?

A brief quote from the article about an "auto-pedestrian collision:"  "The man was riding his bicycle when he was struck by a 2012 or 2013 grey Jeep Liberty that then left the scene. The jeep was heading westbound on East Whitestone when the vehicle struck the bicycle."

I flunked out of college due to lack of motivation, mostly, and I am more literate than these wannabe journalists!  Evidently they can't afford proofreaders. 

Well, let's at least be grateful the Cedar Park cops seem to want to find the scumbag who was driving the Jeep.
