  • Dear LFGSS users,

    There appears to be a number of you which fail to understand that a pedestrian has the right of way, should they step into the road you should do your up-most to avoid a collision regardless of whether your a cyclist, motorist or in charge of a horse.

    Whilst you may be able to cycle at 18mph though busy London Street's sometimes it inappropriate as your may not be able to stop in time to avoid a collision.

    Should you be involved in a collision, the condition of your cycle or comments made online may be called into question....

  • Of course cyclists must do everything they can to avoid collisions. What many here are pointing out is that pedestrians also have a responsibility to cross carefully, and avoid stepping in front of moving vehicles within their stopping distance.

  • pedestrians also have a responsibility to cross carefully,

    Is their responsibility equal to a driver/rider's not to hit them if they get it wrong?
    I think not. As i said above, the more you can harm the bigger responsibility you have
