That was it? Well, that settles it for me. I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt that maybe he could not avoid her. He CLEARLY could have.
Final verdict: Douche.
Agreed. He knew exactly what he was doing and did it by choice.
She's an idiot... but just because someone is being an idiot doesn't mean you can hurt them. If a pedestrian jaywalks that doesn't mean you can run them over. That's what he did. Ran her over knowingly.
Watch his steps leading up to the impact. He never changes course when he easily could have.
He also doesn't, god forbid, slow down. He saw her being an idiot from a long way coming. He should have slowed down when approaching her, just as you slow down approaching a dangerous situation on your bike or in your car.
Edit: he also could have yelled "heads up" or similar when she started backing, and he never did.
DQ them both, but he's a Douche.
