You still have a fairly good chance of being killed by another cyclist too... once saw a very close shave between two cyclists at the lights by the northeast corner of The Level, one had gone through a red light and nearly wiped out a cyclist who had the right of way. Some cracking vocabulary...
Crikey, I thought you were ultra pro cyclist ? .... get yourself down Worthing prom by Splash Point and you will see plenty more idiots of the same ilk roaring past pedestrians with inches to spare. There has been accidents before and there will be again before long.
Tragic accident compounded by several unfortunate factors coming together. Someone has died in this one but there are many such circumstances where good fortune means its a few bruises or a s@@@ yourself moment.
