Dumb video
video is gone, so not sure how to delete this post.

almost getting t-boned tends to have this effect on people, especially when the driver doesn't realize they did anything wrong.

And even worse, cyclist didn't see that guy coming?? And he's riding across a crosswalk? What is he, ten? Good video, in that it reminds me how not to act in traffic.

If he was riding his bicycle, and I think he was, the cyclist was in the wrong. If he wants the protections and ROW of a pedestrian, get off your bike and be one.

It looks like he was pushing his bike along with his foot, and the car was in the wrong as you should always slow when coming up to a crossing.
He reacts pretty much as I would if a car almost killed me. |

This is interesting information ( http://www.tfid.org/faq/101-traffic/...osswalk-unsafe ):
Accidents at crosswalks on multi-lane roadways frequently occur when a driver in one lane stops for a pedestrian that is waiting or already in the crosswalk. The driver of another vehicle in an adjacent lane may not stop and may hit the pedestrian. Although it is illegal for drivers to pass a stopped vehicle at a crosswalk, pedestrians should be very cautious, especially when their visibility is limited. |

He was probably too focused on that babe at the other end of the crosswalk.
