enough said i be here for 100 years to write all.
they ouught to take this truck drivers mother and lynch her.
truck drivers the worst they think they

can run any one down or over because they have a hugh machine in their stupid hands.
love to kick this drivers butt in and then to some memebrs of this family like his mother if he ever had one.
really sad this whole thing... i say screw the bus and truck drivers and we can through in the motor cycles in the pop area who think they own the streets.
really i hope they all go down and not die but lose a leg or a arm and suffer the rest of their lives.

for all the spirit airline lovers.
next month u need to pay for your carry-on.
in july if u need to go to the bano the charge will be $5us...lol
have a nice flight on spirit airlines.

This starts to sound like a very bad joke:
How come The Dominican Republic does not have a bicycle team?
They all got killed in traffic!
Could have been funny, if it had not been the sad sad truth.
Condolences to the family and rest in peace Leonardo.

I have been driving around the country quite a bit of late and nothing would induce me to ride a bike ...I do not know who is the worst , the bus drivers who take crazy risks and have no respect for anyone ,or truck drivers who lack concentration or car drivers always chatting on the cells ..Anyone who shows courtesy on the road is looked at as a crazy man. so sorry for these cyclists

Truely sad news.....
Driving, walking, jogging and yes cycling is always a risk in the DR.
Heart felt Condoences to the victim and His Family.

Ricardolito,
I totally agree one 100%.

If you want to have fun stop and let someone cross the road. They look at you like you are playing chicken with them and plan on running them over. What a country.

I bought a piece of property. Walled it in with 7 ft walls, cleaned up all the neighbors garbage, planted flowers and theyare throwing t he garbage over the wall onto my property now. What a country, what a class people.

Being considerate here is just a BS Abstraction.

My Condoences to Leonardo Grullon Family. RIP

This country needs an overhaul and fast. This kinf of stuff should not happen,

Let's string up the driver to the first mango tree we find. You are a sorry SOB.

My heart goes to Grullon's family and friends. I saw the news, and the image wasn't for the feint hearted. Anything u do in DR risky! The word "safety" is scarce in DR. And yeah them friggn bus drivers just goes to pull over the side of the road to load/unload passengers and when they go back to the road, they don't bother looking at their mirrors to check if a motorist is gonna pass by. Escott, my grandma is going through the same issue as you. My grandma has land unattended, and people just throw many different kinds of trash from bicycle chains to plastic bottles and rags. People have no damn shame.

From one cyclist to another, I hope you'll be riding hard in heaven.

Living in this country is an extreme sport, you can't let your guard down.

I have some real nice bikes that are just sitting in my hosue because as much as I want to ride it just is not in the cards. Until Amet gets some teeth, The judges get some balls, and the goverment declares the sindicos a terrorist organization this will not stop.

Jonbonz, don't hold your breath!

There is no political will to enforce any law unless it suits a politician.
Yes everyone shuld mourn this unescassary death however the guilt lies in the hands of the poiticians who have only the will to fill their pockets with money and no will to insitute justice.

Are you implying that politicians should write the laws, enforce compliance of the laws and judge the law breakers ?? God forbid .
