3 year old mown down on the pavement
 
The cyclist then swore at the parents and rode away, he is now facing
charges, I hope he has fridge freezer insurance to pay the child's
family plenty of compo. Video is incontrovertible evidence.

The comments are an interesting mix.

Try this one by Montgomery-the-4th, bournemouth, United Kingdom, about
an hour ago

"Im [sic] not taking sides here but she did just come out of nowhere?!"

Er... no. She came out of her garden gate onto a *foot*way.

"I often travek [sic] very fast on pavements myself but then again i
[sic] am highly skilled with rapid reactions, i [sic] probably could
have bunny hopped that little girl."

Jeez... the pillock fancies himself...

And what about this one...

Its a Weird World, Grimsby, United Kingdom, about an hour ago:

"Disgraceful - unattended toddlers on pavements can be knocked down by
all manner of things including people. It was the toddler being
unattended that is the issue here".

Another cyclist making excuses.

The Sun is a tabloid. Half a page isn't all that much.

Exactly.
Just shows where The Sun has its priorities.

From experience and from many other confirmed reports from other
incidents, it seems more credible that the cyclist did swear at the
parents and ride away. However, even if we ignore the allegation of
swearing, a crime occurred, was witnessed and filmed.

What is particularly incredible is the claim that he did not know that
it was illegal to ride on the footway.

What is indisputable is that he WAS riding on the footway and that he
did crash into and injure a small child.

That report says nothing about what he actually said to the victim's
parents. Just a load of old tosh about the cyclist feeling sorry for
himself.

The swearing at the parents was reported immediately, not in the Indy a
week later.
