There goes the neighborhood

Today, I was walking down the road when a twat on a quad-bike smashed into my leg. It seems that I should've been "walking on the right side of the pavement." FML

You got hit by a talking ******? It's ironic that the ****** acted like a douchebag.

I don't want to get hit by a car, it's too mainstream. Im ahead of everyone, I hit cars before they hit me. Also I secretly like to lick their windows. But that just between you and me.

Yep. You walk facing traffic, not with your back to it. I'm on her side in this one, and have wanted to do the same thing many times to many idiots.

I thought you could only use quadbikes on private property in England. I know people that own them and they only ride them on their land or at airfields or whatever...

All these people who don’t understand a pavement is for pedestrians and bikes only... not cars! So that it doesn’t matter which side she was walking because it was for pedestrians and a car shouldn’t be able to hit her

Well, IDK about where you live, but here in the midwestern part of the USA, the rule is: bike with the traffic, run or walk against the traffic. So, assuming you weren't on a sidewalk, were you walking properly against the traffic?
