Cyclist, 108, survives crash

An 108-year-old cyclist suffered only minor bruises after she was hit by a car while riding across a busy street in Vienna, Austrian police said.

The woman was pedalling her bike across the Praterstrasse - a bustling thoroughfare - when a car pulled away early from a red light and struck her.

Officials would not identify the elderly cyclist, but they say she escaped the accident with a few bruises and was taken to a hospital for an examination.
