Hope he heals up, but tbh, deserved to get hit if he was not able to judge the situation.
There are times it is safe to hop a red, and time when it really is not, and this sounded like a time to wait, maybe he will learn from this and not be so dumb in future. See it all the time with what I affectionately call 'Mary Poppins' riders, these are dippy lasses with flowery skirts and flip flops riding through junctions without a look left or right when it's a red, just float along, a collision just waiting to happen.
