The Armadillos along Fort Ave may be to blame for the fatal scooter crash. There are near misses every day, and anyone who hits one on a bike goes flying. An individual got a flat tire as a result of one the very day of the fatal crash. There are plans to expand the bike lane which will cause even more accidents. The group responsible for this claims that there haven't been any incidents on Fort ave as a result of these armadillos. Unfortunately, the possibility of a serious incident has become all too real with the death of a 28 year old scooter rider.
