Police seek family of 83 year old cyclist killed in Glasgow
Police are seeking the family of an 83 year old cyclist who died after being hit by a car in Glasgow.
Jean Watson was cycling north on Cumbernauld Road at around 8am on Thursday when a grey Citroen C1 collided with her on a slip road between the A752 and the A80.
She was taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital suffering from a serious head injury, where she died two days later.
Police are now looking to find family members of Ms Watson who lived in Cumbernauld Road, Chryston.
Sergeant Craig McDonald from the Divisional Road Policing Unit based at Motherwell said:
"Officers have so far been unable to trace any relatives of Ms Watson and I would appeal to anyone who can assist with this matter to come forward.
"I would also ask anyone with information regarding Ms Watson's movements prior to the road crash to please get in touch."
Anyone with information can contact the Divisional Road Policing Unit based at Motherwell via 101 and quote incident number 0740 of Thursday 10th August 2017.
After an unpromising start, having to be bribed by her parents to learn to ride without stabilisers, Sarah became rather keener on cycling in her university years, and was eventually persuaded to upgrade to proper road cycling by the prospect of a shiny red Italian bike, which she promptly destroyed by trapping a pair of knickers in the rear derailleur. Sarah writes about about cycling every weekend on road.cc.
Never know what to put when you ask for a comment in these competitions and now I'm wracked with self doubt. Should I try and be funny? Use a pun?...
It turns out I can, though, so I have.
Sub-millimetre fit... best make sure you're wearing socks when you scan your feet!
Only in your wet dreams. ...
There's only one of me and yes I did know - I'm already well past 50....
I'd say it's also anti-social behaviour and maybe they were trying to terrorise the cyclists off the road?!
Not Mason's, Manor.
GDPR is in no way a hinderance to providing driver info to the Police, in fact it's written into the wording of GDPR rulings that law enforcement...
"......cabinet member for climate emergency, transport and the environment...."...
They're probably taking photos of all the helmets on display 🧢 And wondering where they keep their bike pumps... this one time at band camp 🎺
