Where does it say the collision occurred on the pavement? From the
article it could just have easily been that she stepped out into the
road in front of the cyclist.

Hmm, true it doesn't specify where the incident occurred.

However, it does say say 'as she stepped out of an Asda store'

Which does imply that it was directly outside the store entrance, and most
likely on the pavement/pedestrianised area outside.

Please let's not speculate.

No she could have been stepping into the car park.

Fortunately they appear to have caught the perpetrator. If the worst happens
and this poor woman dies, hopefully he'll be charged with manslaughter - at
least.

Whereas, had she been hit by a car, the motorists here on this cycling
newsgroup would have blamed her.

Not even a nice try on your part, quite the reverse. However, my
point remains valid, not enough information to express a useful
opinion on.

If you wish to make a fool of yourself in this way again you have my
permission to do so as often as you like.

The report does not specify whether the incident happened on the
footway or on the carriageway. Of course, even if it was on the
carriageway, the cyclist is at fault.

It says "as she stepped out of an Asda store". As someone else pointed
out, on a previous occasion the Daily Mail had a story about a supposed
pavement cyclist that turned out to be wrong, but if she had really just
stepped out of a store, it seems unlikely she was on a carriageway.

(But yes, anyone using a carriageway which had store doors opening onto it,
or more likely a shared use path, should be just as careful about not
knocking people down.)

It doesn't. Nor does it or can it say that the perpetrator has been
caught, until and unless he is tried and found guilty in court.

Would you like to rethink that, he can't have been caught unless he is
guilty?

That;'s an interesting (although, thank goodness, unconventional) view
of the respective roles of police and courts in criminal justice you
have there. This is the UK, not Megacity 1

Being caught equating to guilty doesn't work for me.

Being in court doesn't make you guilty either.

I think TonyD should be filed along with the other rather odd people.
