The court may decide that both parties are negligent to some degree. In this scenario, the court may award compensation for your injuries but reduce the award for your own contributory negligence - that is, the degree to which you contributed to the cause of your own injuries.
It is extremely unlikely that a Court will ever find you 100% at fault for a pedestrian crossing accident no matter how reckless you have been. That is because 'The Highway Code' places a high duty of care on drivers in respect of pedestrians. Drivers are expected to approach crossings with extreme caution and take extra care when driving in built up areas or around schools. |
If the pedestrian is not 100% at fault, then the driver will bear some liability. ____________________ Bikes: S1000R, SH350; Exes: Vity 125, PS125, YBR125, ER6f, VFR800, Brutale 920, CB600F, SH300x4

This thread is hilarious.
Apparently loud exhausts make zero noise coming towards you.
When riding towards a green light you should brake in case a pedestrian walks into the road.
If a pedestrian walks into the road without looking, no warning and gives you no time to react, it's totes your fault because you didn't use Jedi skills.
If your bike gets gravel rash all down one side you should just pick it up and ride off or you're a whiny little bitch.
She got up and hurried off through a combination of shock, guilt and embarrassment. She knew she was in the wrong and had just wrecked that guy's bike. For some reason she didn't want to hang about and check if he was okay or offer to pay for the damage to the bike. Yes she is a stoic and strong character, and he's a whiny bitch with poor obs. |

Your missing the important part.
The same argument is put up when a biker t-bones a cager.
Who comes out the worse in that scenario?
No matter who has 'right of way the biker stands to lose the most.
Solution, prepare to stop or slow down.
It is really elementary.
Think about that logic too. ____________________ Disclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN. |

What a stupid bint though, darwin theory in action! |
If you look at his other clip he incriminate himself again when riding through a busy town centre in rain during darkness.
Failed to notice a girl crossing 'on zig-day's when he overtakes a line of traffic waiting on the crossing.
As I said, he's a dick or as someone else said, a missile (unguided guy fawkes type). ____________________ Disclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN. |

Good example. (Need to get me a camera like that one very clear image.)
It must be the cleaner air in Scotland or just something in the whiskey but do you not see her beginning to cross in front of the taxi?
I look for this shit every time I ride or drive through town.
That edjit would have been blasted in court I bet.
Who hasn't been in traffic and pedestrian has appeared 'as if from nowhere' (but actually from where pedestrians always appear from in traffic.)
These idiots with their vlog-cams need to go back to bike school or maybe do an AIMS course. (But they perhaps believe they are already more advanced than AIMS.) ____________________ Disclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN. |

Delusional. How many times did you watch the video before you 'anticipated' her stepping out? |

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 5 years, 86 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
