So who had the right of way in this instance? You tell me. (I know you are a lot closer to the situation than I am)
Pedestrians always have the right of way. Bicyclists are expected to follow the rules of the road just like motor vehicles. That would include obeying the speed limit and yielding to pedestrians.
I don’t know - except that it is considered the pedestrian always, always, always has the right of way. Just as it is in suburbanville. He was about to plow into another group of people when he swerved into the dead woman screaming “Get out of the way!” I’ve been yelled at by maniac cyclists - coming from uptown to downtown at extremely high speeds. Uptown is called such because it is at an elevated level. I almost lost my life to one of these maniacs on Lexington Avenue. Add to that the Chinese takeout drivers who drive on the sidewalks to deliver food and you would know how crazy it is.
This should have been cracked down on the 1970s.
The pedestrian.
I read on Red State this morning that the bike had no brakes.
Erik Erickson had a great editorial about bike riders and their arrogant sense of liberal privilege. The bike riders in urban environments are a menace. They don't follow any rules of the road and are outraged if they get hit by a motorist when running a light, or stop sign. I can't help but notice that I don't see very many bike riders in the predominantly Black parts of town.
