Cyclist who killed pedestrian in high speed crash said people had 'zero respect' for those on bikes, court hears

Mr Alliston had been riding a fixed wheel track bicycle with no front brake,
which is illegal on British roads.

He allegedly shouted to her to "get out of the way" twice before their heads
smashed together.

What an arrogant ****** this piece of **** really is.

By his own admission he had 60 feet (at least) to stop, slow down or
swerve, before hitting her. Remarkable that he stayed for the Police,
perhaps he was stunned. How he can be denying manslaughter is beyond
explanation, he caused her death, regardless of any other factors.

Did you or did you not claim it takes 37 metres to stop a bicycle from 20mph?

Does it take thirty seven meters to slow down or change direction?

Totally agree.
It is people like him who give bicyclists a bad name, including those
who stop at red lights, let pedestrians go first at pedestrian
crossings, don't ride on footpaths except at low speed (max 5mph) for
safety reasons, etc ---

Now come on : he was only doing twenty miles an hour : and we know that the
average cyclist can stop in a shorter distance than a car at that speed.

I think the accident came about because the pedestrian was not paying enough
attention and did not know that cyclists always have the right of way.

Ask the 'experts' [1] who claim it takes a bicycle exactly 37 metres to stop from 20mph in all circumstances.

[1] You will have to ask Mr Friendless who these 'experts' are.

Was the pedestrian wearing a helmet?
If not, why not?
