ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit

I wonder if the tracks contributed to loss of control.
Istm that the cyclist would almost certainly have misjudged his angle in relation to the tracks in turning onto/from Ottawa St ahead of the oncoming train.  If not, and he turned into the path of a moving train, he's lucky to be alive.
