Pima County Prosecutor on bike commuting

Jonathan Mosher has a guest opinion in the Star today, taking that paper's "Road Runner" columnist to task (as I have done myself, here) for a recent article that was dismissive of bike commuting.

Mosher is the Pima County prosecutor who tried Melissa Arrington, the drunk driver who killed Paul L'Ecuyer last year and later laughed about it in jail.

Mosher is a cyclist who takes bike issues seriously. Let's hope that people of his skill and commitment continue to be assigned cases of attacks and drunken collisions with cyclists.

Good for Mr. Mosher!

Wow, I think that may be the first "bicycle friendly" article I've read on the Star. I'm so happy that someone challenged that article.
