    Twitter thinks she's been killed. Possible left-hook.

    Awful. Another link, which also sounds like a left hook or the cyclist going up the inside: https://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/news/17656293.eyewitnesses-on-pollokshaws-road-cyclist-collision-as-10-police-cars-dash-to-scene/

    "The police have asked us for our CCTV which faces down Pollokshaws Road. I think the truck was coming up the road and turning left."

    THE SCOTTISH Government must act to make cycling safer by passing legislation to lower the speed limit to 20mph in residential streets, campaigners have claimed.

    The renewed calls to reduce speeds from 30 to 20mph – suggestions first made in a Bill presented to the Scottish Parliament by Mark Ruskell MSP last September – come after the death of a cyclist in Glasgow last Wednesday. Four cyclists have already been killed on Scotland’s roads this year.
