Glad to hear that - a sensible approach. I live in dread that some
pedestrian on one of the local lanes will have just read the
admonition in the Highway Code about walking facing the traffic, and
I'll meet them going round a left hand bend. Most of the roads round
here are unsafe for pedestrians.

You mean the drivers around there are unsafe for pedestrians!

You unable to read?


We read. We disagreed. Very few roads are unsafe for pedestrians,
giant sinkholes apart. It is negligent drivers of motorised vehicles
who are a danger.

Christ you are an an idiot.


I bet you believe that a gun without someone to load it aim it and fire
it also is dangerous...


And that no one has ever been killed by a pedestrian or a cyclist.


not true

There have been a number of court cases recently where a cyclist colliding
with apedestian had resulted in that perdestrian dying.
