[QUOTE="Saintjay, post: 1222605, member: 55969"] It's difficult without seeing the accident. I'm working on the basis like with advanced driving you have information, position, speed etc. I'm guessing they have something similar for cycling. As a driver you'd be looking for a pedestrian close to the kerb on there phone and so on. So the cyclist should have had his hazard perception dialed up to ten. I accept i might have been over harsh and he might not have been to blame at all. As for how he should have handled it. Don't really know tbh, unless he was trying to get her details for a personal injury claim what was he trying to achieve. You can flip it on it's head and ask what advice should you give a female if she's been involved in an accident and faced with an angry male. Probably something like de-escalte, or remove yourself from the situation, call the cops. [/QUOTE]
