A car has ploughed into a bike race along a highway near the US-Mexico border, killing one and injuring 10 others, say police.

The 28-year-old driver was apparently drunk and fell asleep when he crashed into the race, said police investigator Jose Alfredo Rodriguez.

horrid :(

is it me or does it look as tho the cop car has just swerved to avoid a head on with the car ? would have taken some nerve i guess but maybe slightly better to have the pack run in the back of a stationary cop car than taken out by the nutter.

Both cop & idiot are on the "wrong" sides of the road. Was the cop "leading" the cyclists, or overtaking them?
