Clipped a schoolgirl on Kingsland Rd - this morning. Shouldered her as I passed. She had headphones in and actually looked in the opposite direction to oncoming traffic as she stepped out into the S-bound bus lane. She had a helluva shock as I yelled and then knocked into her. I had a gentle chat - she knew what she had done wrong. If I'd been a motorcyclist or maybe a car she'd be in AnE right now. As it was we both escaped only shaken.
