Tragedy waiting to happen

Every morning I would be eating breakfast at McDonalds and looking out the window and I would see this very old man walking with a cane step from the curb and shuffle across the street that had a stop sign. Also, every morning I would would watch the same car come up the adjoining street at a fast speed, do a fast rolling stop through the stop sign while looking to his left for on coming traffic and make a right turn. And yes, you guessed it. One morning the old man stepped off the curb, the car came up fast, the driver was looking left away from the old man, ran the stop sign making his right turn, and ran over the old man. A "salmoning" bicycle on the sidewalk, entering a intersection at a quick speed where cars will be making right turns at that intersection will sooner or later be hit by a car making a right turn without stopping. Show the biker this post and maybe he will understand how dangerous salmoning on the sidewalk is.
