A cyclist crashed into a Honda Civic on Wednesday evening, damaging the windshield and ripping off the car’s right sideview mirror.

The accident happened on the 800 block of Euclid Avenue. The cyclist was taken to Upstate University Hospital.

Kumar Ashutosh, the driver of the Honda Civic, said he was driving down Euclid Avenue when the cyclist, who was in a bike lane on the right side of the road, suddenly made a left turn into his car.

The cyclist rode into the car’s right door, knocking off the rearview mirror and smashing his elbow into the windshield. The impact left a large dent in the windshield.

Ashutosh, a pulmonary doctor at University Hospital, said he talked with the cyclist before EMS responders took him to the hospital. Ashutosh said the cyclist claimed he signaled the turn with his hand.

Ashutosh said he didn’t notice the cyclist until the accident happened.

Sgt. Gary Bulinski of the Syracuse Police Department did not immediately return a phone call.
