yet another pedestrian hit by a speeding cyclist
This guy is blind, with a guide dog and has been mown down and seriously
hurt by a high speed cyclist ON THE PAVEMENT. The cyclist did not hang around or give his insurance details or even name and address, just rode away leaving a blind man in a heap on the pavement. WTF is wrong with cyclists? http://news.scotsman.com/scotland/Bl...-in.6636017.jp |

Not as far as I am aware, there was an elderly man killed by a cyclist a week or so ago that I brought up here, but both man and cycle were actually in the road (makes a change I suppose) These 'cyclist running into people on the pavement' stories do pop up frequently. Strange since according to some people they almost never ever happen, and it is never ever the cyclist's fault in any way. Let's see how this incident was all the fault of the pedestrian, or perhaps it was his guide dog's fault? or was it the local council, or those nasty motorists, or perhaps a horse, or a pedestrian barrier.

So no comment relevant to the cyclist smashing into an elderly blind man and dog? Typical cyclist, just like you really, cannot see a thing unless he wants to. Mrcheerful |

Wrong - it is a shared use cycle path. http://road.cc/content/news/27697-bl...hared-use-path And looking on Streetview at what I assume to be the location it does not look the sort of place where a cyclist could manage any speed at all. It does look like an accident waiting to happen with a narrow overgrown blind entry/exit but that does not excuse the individual leaving the scene and not offering help. Tony |
