Yeah, right. I have a friend who had a serious head injury when a runner with buds did a U-turn immediately in front of him, without looking back. He was wearing a helmet. I stay off MUPs as much as possible. If it's always the cyclist's fault, then no other users have to be concerned about them at all and, as I said, can do anything they want.
