No updates on condition of the seemingly seriously-injured rider, maybe someone else has heard more?
Also, keylime: the comment thread in this one isn't horrible, either. Mostly respect and a consensus (well backed up by cited law) that drivers need to look in their fucking side mirrors before opening doors.

updated because the comment thread is fucking huge on that post:
"I was the cyclist riding with my friend yesterday down Ballard Ave. Because I haven't spoken to insurance nor consulted legal advice just yet, I would like to avoid giving specific details, but both Caitlin and I are feeling sore but otherwise out of the hospital and doing ok. Ironically, we were riding down Ballard Ave because it is safer than taking Shishole Ave NW.
I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to the people that stopped and helped, in particular Heather - the blankets were wonderful and much appreciated - and if I remember her name correctly, "Judy" or "Judith" who stayed with me the entire time. The wonderful doctors and paramedics that took care of me really are angels in disguise. To help someone in their time of need is the grandest gesture of all, and I really do appreciate it."
So it sounds like they're physically (mostly) ok and likely gonna get a payday out of it. Nice.
