There was a collision between a vehicle and a cyclist Thursday morning in the north end of the city.

"The vehicle made a left hand turn onto Errol Rd. and struck the cyclist as it was travelling westbound," he says. "The cyclist was taken to hospital for minor injuries, the driver of the motor vehicle was charged."

Sottosanti says motorists must give cyclists a metre of clearance and not cross into, or park in newly installed bike lanes.
