BARTLETT — A fatal accident involving a car and bicyclist occurred just north of the Intervale Scenic Vista on Route 16 on Wednesday afternoon.
The Carroll County Sheriff’s Office and New Hampshire State Police are investigating, according to Sheriff’s Lt. Mike Santuccio and Lt. Jim Fogarty of State Police Troop E.
Until proven an accident, this was simply a crash. Unless the Conway Daily Sun is declaring everyone free of any blame without any conclusion to the investigation? Crash does not imply any blame, it is merely a fact. Accident implies nothing could be done and everyone acted properly.
Please do not refer to this as an "accident" as it could very well be "negligent homicide", and calling it an accident implies a lack of fault. To be non judgmental, given the lack of more information, one could more accurately call it an "incident".
I am very sorry to hear of this, certainly too bad. Given the number of cyclists, there is a real need for a bike path, or at least a well marked bike lane on this section of 16.

Right now it’s an accident.
