"Riding a fixed wheel bicycle on busy roads without a front brake is
illegal, stupid, and endangers other road users especially pedestrians.
Charlie Alliston's actions had tragic consequences for Kim Briggs'
family, and it was entirely right that this led to his prosecution."

And if the cyclist had died the first question asked would be 'Was he wearing a helmet?'
A low energy impact like this is just the sort of thing cycle helmets can protect against so why doesn't Mad Angela campaign for mandatory pedestrian helmets?
