Whitechapel cyclist pushed Into the road

No one is defending the nutter.

The point being made is whether there was more than one.

Simplez

I think you are wrong.

I think she is as dick all the time.

This is confirmed by acting like one without provocation.

Don't open with sarcasm.

Especially in London.

Or wear a camera so we all get to see your misfortune.

that, people, is solid gold victim blaming. jog the fuck on mate.

You didn't read the post above.

Clearly.

Don't open with sarcasm.

Hilarious. No victim blaming here.

Just some sound advice.

Cheer Up 😀

oh i read it. just because you say you aren't rationalising this cunts behaviour doesn't mean you aren't. that much is clear in your follow up post. get a fucking grip.

I wish we'd stop giving each other grief over this, I think (hope) we all agree that nothing she could possibly have done would deserve his repulsively disproportionate violence to someone unable to defend themselves, regardless of their gender. It's not even relevant that the victim was on a bike, his response would be as sickening if they were another pedestrian.

I don't think anyone can be 100% certain from the clip, but I don't think either of them rode/walked into the other.

A couple of pages back I suggested a scenario which might have stopped it happening, a dab on the brakes followed by 'after you', but what if her bike handling wasn't up to it? Even if she is a brilliant bike handler who arrogantly rode across the front of him, giving him the finger and a mouthful of abuse, that would never justify his response. We are firmly in 'The Accused' territory here.....

I've never met Ordinata (Odonata, surely?) and can't speak for him, but I hope he wouldn't disagree.

What I don't like is people being so black and white. It is never one way.

If you want to improve social interaction in built up areas both parties involved need to be accountable imo.

It is not just the taxi drivers. It is not just the pedestrians. It is not just the bus drivers.

If you brushed past me on a busy tube in the morning and said sarcastically 'Don't push me'

I would probably tell you to where to go.

Obviously violence is not an option.

As stated in my first post.

There is no point sticking your head in the sand imo.

Grabbing the nearest pitch fork just shows how small minded you are.

Great stuff guys.

Schttttaaaahp

Grabbing the nearest pitch fork just shows how small minded you are.

Pitchfork. Small-minded.

Christ. We are on grammar level. Well done.

End Boss soon.

Why do you keep editing your posts to add inconsequential shit you indenting bellend?

le Sigh.

Sod it, I give up on attempting to get essentially decent people to admit they share the same central truth.

Fuck off @Skülly, or I'll lump you!

He is in the wrong for trying to cross the road with moving traffic.

Technically he is not.

The Highway Code and I beg to differ.

Technically he has priority, it's the vehicle user's obligation to give way and avoid a collision. Peds always have priority. The rider probably knows that this rule is ignored by drivers so it would be more dangerous if she stopped.

Technically, it is not illegal to walk on the road, unless it's a motorways.

It's not illegal and I never said that. Just that he is in the wrong for attempting to cross the road with moving traffic.
He is taking a risk and putting other people at risk. If a car did run him over an insurance company wouldn't give him a dime. So technically he ain't in the right

Just that he is in the wrong for attempting to cross the road with moving traffic.

No.

it's inadvisable to cross the road with moving traffic, doesn't mean you can't do it, the Highway Code are guideline, rather than law.

If a car did run him over an insurance company wouldn't give him a dime.

Actually they would.

This isn't America.
