it gets worse ..............after the crash he jumped up and he ( Alliston ) continued to shout at Mrs Briggs as she lay in the road with devastating head injuries, which led to her death a week later. Alliston allegedly shouted at Briggs to “get out of the way” twice before their heads knocked together. After seeing a newspaper report about the incident, Alliston posted a comment online claiming he tried to warn her but she had “ignored” him and “stopped dead” in his path. He wrote: “I feel bad due to the seriousness of her injuries but I can put my hand up and say this is not my fault.” On an internet forum, he described how their heads collided and hers “ricocheted” into his. He wrote: “It is a pretty serious incident so I won’t bother saying she deserved it. It was her fault but she did not deserve it.” He went on to claim Briggs had been on her mobile phone. He complained: “Everyone is quick to judge and help the so-called victim but not the other person in the situation. “It all happened so fast and even at a slow speed there was nothing I could do. I just wish people would stop making judgments. People either think they are invincible or have zero respect for cyclists.” Alliston was questioned during the trial over a tweet he sent in February 2015 that compared cycling without a front brake to being in a “Lucas Brunelle movie”. Brunelle makes “alleycat” videos in which he rides around cities including London “doing dangerous stuff” such as weaving in and out of traffic, narrowly avoiding pedestrians and going into bus lanes, the Old Bailey heard. Alliston denied copying the film-maker or enjoying taking risks. “I did not get a kick or enjoyment out of not being safe,” he said. Edward Small, a crash investigator who studied CCTV of the incident, concluded that Alliston, who was then aged 18, would have been able to stop and avoid a collision if the bike had been fitted with a front brake. The defendant had been travelling at an average of 18mph before he noticed Briggs step into the road, jurors heard. He was a minimum of 6.65 metres (21.8ft) away when he swerved and tried to take evasive action. in short the little idiot , has no remorse and it ' was not his fault ' despite the fact he was going at speed with no brakes - it beggars belief |

Since when does a cyclist DRIVE on a road? Surely you ride a bike, but only an idiot would attempt to ride a brakeless bike on a public road and in London.

I can understand this at kids, because they didn't realise the risk of the traffic. @scoundrel: I felt remembered at my parents, they never had a look at my bicycle as I was about the same age as you were at this time, but as things got worse, they used to make trouble. Parents have to control the condition of the bike of their kids !!! Once I visiting a friend of mine, who was some kilometres away from my home. I cannot remember the reason any more, but his father repaired my bicycle during my visit, I got a new bell, he adjusted my breaks, I got a new headlight and he repaired my back light. I was lucky (!), and I watched him interested. My father never did anything like this.

I seriously cannot imagine why ANYONE would ride a bicycle without brakes, anywhere at any time. Its not like removing them reduces the weight of the bike enough to change anything and its not like the brakes apply themselves at random or something.
From an evolutionary point of view, I'd be just fine with those so inclined removing themselves from the gene pool this way but as the idiot discussed above demonstrates they are not that considerate.
