In the news

Alliston was riding a fixie - a fixed-wheel bicycle with no front brake used by track racing cyclists - across a junction on Old Street, Shoreditch, last February when he said he saw HR consultant Mrs Briggs step out into the road while looking at her phone.

Mrs Briggs' family said they plan to campaign for tougher cycling laws to protect pedestrians.

Wouldn't they be better off protecting pedestrians by speaking about the dangers of walking onto the road while looking at your phone?
