Not if its 15 feet in front of you. She was standing on te kerb IIRC and
took three steps into the road .. the guy smoked his styres but he still
hit her at maybe 12 mph

So he saw a senile old dear standing on the kerb about to step off and still
didn't slow down.


She did a cartwheel - I remember her knickers on display, and broke her
neck. I remember the blood coming out of her nose and ears.

Hmm, I bet its hard to get a person to do a cartwheel from a 12 mph impact.


Bit strange for a 12 year old boy, really.



They aren't like the cyclists that shoot across the road from walkways
and places like that.

They are just as bad.
