I think you guys are missing the point here. The kid was being a prick. He saw me, looked away and kept walking slowly. Not to mention, he was not crossing at a crosswalk which was only 50 feet further up the road. This is a road where people do 50MPH. You should not cross unless there s a crosswalk. If I tried to swerve around him way ahead of time, I would have been in traffic. When I did swerve, he stopped walking and I hit him. He was walking and carrying the board, not riding it. EMTs came to the scene and made sure everyone was fine.
