Of course any driver knows that a pedestrian crossing starts on the

You are very naive here
The law states that you must step on the crossing to get priority. I
assume that you are a driver that stops for pedestrians that are waiting
to cross. How sad.

she could have been deaf
or blind and wouldn't know the ambulance was there.


How long have you spent learning bollockese?

A pedestrian crossing does not start for a pedestrian until she, or he
steps onto it. Dogs do not count, neither do cyclists, who are cyclists
while holding a cycle

Unless there is a different story there is no way the crew were not at
fault.
You can't just ignore people and animals at crossings and hope they
won't cross.


Care to test this in law ?
