I base this on my personal experience of having hit a pedestrian with my car. I pulled into a crosswalk and got T-boned by a rollerblader coming off the sidewalk from my right. We got into a verbal altercation, she called the cops, they showed up. They finally told her to shut up and move on or she was going to jail. No ticket for me.

Total damage to my car was lipstick on the window.
You failed to properly yield and you want to blame the collision on a 'wrong way rollerblader'. Please do show the law the rollerblader violated by your CLAIM of wrong way blading.
