Cyclist dies in expressway accident near Tokyo

1. At least he died doing what he loves. RIP

2. Poor guy. According to the wiki for the “Metropolitan Expressway”, “all trips on the expressway require a toll be paid”, which to me implies that there is a gate at all entrances and exits, no? How can someone ride up the access ramp on a bycicle and go through the gates and not immediately think something’s wrong? What am I missing?

3. It’s sad, but nobody is expecting a bicycle when driving on the expressway. I can’t really blame the driver.

4. He was a big part of my community. We are gutted by his passing.
