If you ride the streets, there are more dangers than just potholes and cars. A single bonehead pedestrian stepping into the street without looking can ruin your day, taco your wheel and take you out big time. It’s not because you did anything wrong, it’s because they’re idiots who never learned what every kid is taught by their parents, “Look Both Ways Before Crossing The Street.”
1 - The Blind Pedestrian I’m not referring to the vision impaired, but to those that don’t look where they’re going before stepping out into the street. You could be the only moving vehicle on the road, on a completely empty street, and they’ll still step directly into your path without ever thinking that maybe, just maybe, there’s a vehicle coming their way. Bowling ball hits pin, pin goes down.
