So you'll ignore every other bit of info that suggests she is in fact a vulnerable disabled person. They just chuck anyone in assisted living accommodation these days.
She's a vulnerable person with learning difficulties.
Obviously the accident was a huge and distressing scene, she was probably in shock and didn't have the mental capacity to deal with it.
There was a witness account in a local paper that said other drivers got out to help, and told Auriel...
This isn't true.
There are markings and signs for a shared cycle path on the other side of the road, much further up.
Judge Enright was biased and wrong, and has been overruled by a higher court. The two things you've quoted from him are questionable at best, IMHO they're demonstrably false.
1) It wasn't a shared path. There are no signs to indicate a shared path. The council was asked and they had no record of a shared path.
2) The original judge stated that Auriel Grey's disability didn't affect her actions. The court of appeal clearly think this is bollocks.

Grey has cerebral palsy which was acknowledged:
"Judge Enright acknowledged the partial blindness, cognitive and mobility issues and cerebral palsy that Grey suffered from"
She lives alone in adapted accommodation and has no family. By any stretch of...

Wrong. You know you wouldn't give it a second thought if it was a car driver, that's why the question makes you uncomfortable.
I'm impartial, I see this as an unfortunate accident.
Question for you Stat:
Imagine a 77yo woman was driving a brand new Range Rover. Someone with learning difficulties steps in front of the Range Rover. Rather than anticipate the hazard and hit the brakes the 77yo female driver panicks and swerves into incoming traffic causing a head on crash...
Some disgusting comments on this thread. In the binary world we live in, cyclists obviously trump SEN people. It was the same on the racism thread.
This is obviously a horrific accident, there's only losers here. The pedestrian was being a twat, the cyclist was incompetent. Aurial has to...
