Here is some follow up.

What a terrible, and preventable, event. Ms. Whitlow's letter is excellent; and I agree with her wholeheartedly that Cambridge schools should indeed teach bike safety! Thank you for sharing this and making people aware of a serious problem in the city (and probably elsewhere).
