Three-year-old girl hit by cyclist
Outrageous
....... dragged for 12ft along the pavement - video A three-year-old girl was left with cuts and bruises to her face, hands and knees after she was knocked over by a "hit-and-run" cyclist and dragged for 12ft outside her home in Blackpool. Little Lucie Wilding can be seen running out of her front gate just as a cyclist passes by, who collided with her and dragged her along the pavement. Her mother, who can be seen getting into a car just in front of her daughter, instantly turns around and runs after the cyclist and the screaming child. Her father is also seen jumping the front wall in pursuit of the cyclist. The cyclist rode off after the accident: - no surprise there then. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...-10267739.html |

Or maybe it was the other driver? omega |

Or maybe it was the other driver? Which vehicles do you think were double parked then? As the video starts, mums' car, silver is parked opposite a white car on the other side of the road. My guess of course, but as the red car and the blue car pass from right to left there doesn't appear to be two lanes available between the silver and white cars. From my perspective, if my judgement of space between the two parked cars is wrong then you or anyone else, do comment. We should not detract, if a cyclist chooses to ride the pavement, whether legal or not he should take responsibility for the safety of others using the pavement at least! omega |

What would have happened to the cyclist if he hadn't cycled away? At a guess, he would have been apprehended and detained until the arrival of the police. The father of the injured child might have wished to exchange a few words with him as well. And why not? |
