The name of the biker injured in a car and bike collision on Monday has been released. Grace Ledbetter, an undergraduate Landscape Architecture major, hit the rear window of a car as it was backing out of the Hendricks Hall circular driveway on Monday just before 8 p.m.
Ledbetter broke the rear window on impact, but remained standing. She was meeting a friend as the collision occurred. Ledbetter’s friend and Ryan Bath, the driver of the vehicle, waited at the scene for emergency services to arrive.
