Shit... this is why Bow Bottom was so backed up yesterday morning. I saw the cops had blocked off the entire Bow Bottom-Deerfoot connector, but I didn't know why...

CITYBEAT - CITY OF CALGARY PRESS RELEASE
-----------------------------------------------------------------
On Nov. 2, 2005 at approximately 06:05 a.m., a 48 year old
male was driving northbound onto the off-ramp from Bow Bottom
Tr. onto northbound Deerfoot Tr. SE. He pulled his vehicle
off to the right hand shoulder of the roadway, likely after
having lost control on the icy street.
He exited his vehicle and was walking around the back of his
Honda CRV when another vehicle, also going northbound lost
control.
This vehicle, a black Jeep TJ, slid sideways into the victim
who was standing on the roadway. He was pinned between his
own vehicle and the jeep suffering crushing injuries to his
legs as well as internal injuries. He was then thrown several
meters to the side of the impact area.
He was transported by EMS to the Foothills Hospital where he
succumbed to his injuries several hours later.
Release by Insp. Paul Manuel
The investigationinto the collision is continuing.
