No criminal charges will be laid against a man accused of running over a group of cyclists in Richmond last year.

Monday marks exactly one year since six cyclists were run down along a stretch of River Road that is notorious for accidents.

Five of the riders survived, but 33-year-old Brad Dean, a member of the Gastown Cycling Club, died.

Criminal Justice Branch spokesperson Dan McLaughlin said Michael Wing Sing Fan of Burnaby, who was allegedly behind the wheel, faces a non-criminal charge of driving without due care and attention under the Motor Vehicles Act.

In a statement to CKNW, Dean’s wife Adele Esnault-Dean said she’s “very disappointed” by the lack of criminal charges.

“I do not feel that justice has been served at all,” said Esnault-Dean.

“What will I tell my daughter when she eventually asks me what happened to the man who killed her father? That he was given a fine between $100-$2,000 and a possible driving suspension for a year.” Tweet This

Fatal crash

The fatal crash took place last November in an area where River Road meets the Westminster Highway.

The cyclists were riding eastbound when a 2013 Lexus travelling in the opposite direction hit the group head-on.

Dean was killed, while two other riders were left seriously injured.
