An 88-year-old woman is in a serious condition in hospital after
being hit by a cyclist, police have said.

The woman was walking along Cowling Brow in Chorley, Lancashire,
when she was struck at about 18:30 BST on Friday.

She fell to the ground and suffered head, chest and pelvic injuries.

Police said the road was closed for *THREE HOURS* (EMPHASIS MINE)
while investigations took place. They appealed for witnesses to
contact them.

I know this road and it is not a good road.
Chances are the cyclist was going hell for leather and not looking
where he was going.
If the lady dies I hope this **** on a bike is brought to law as a
driver would be.


Do we know who is guilty party is yet?


Hopefully a court can answer your question.
In the mind of the cyclist the guilty party must be the lady off 88 years
who sprinted into the road and into the path of the cyclist.
