Was she wearing a helmet?

Like Mama taught me - "Look both ways before crossing the street!"

A green light does not insure your safety when crossing the street.

A crosswalk does not insure your safety when crossing the street.

Only YOU, paying ATTENTION, can create safety crossing the street.

Most pedestrians in my city are already brain dead.

Not trying to be irreverent here. A woman just died because she stepped out in front of speeding traffic WITHOUT LOOKING.

Does not excuse the cyclist if a crime was committed. But a woman is still dead and SHE could have done something about that too.
