[nevermind, the case I linked wasn't a pedestrian]
- Symbiote 7y agoThat seems thoroughly off topic.
- w457uiw4gftyi 7y agoThat case involves neither autonomous cars nor pedestrians.
- Razengan 7y agoMy bad, people commented too quickly for me to delete it when I realized it.
- fortran77 7y agoIt was a pedestrian, _walking_ a bicycle.
- Razengan 7y agoI posted about Harry Dunn who died while "riding his motorcycle when a woman emerged from the airbase on the wrong side of the road and there was a head-on collision." I mistakenly recalled that case as involving a pedestrian.
- tremon 7y agoInteresting segue: in The Netherlands, that would not legally be a pedestrian, although you would be classified as one for most purposes. A pedestrian ("voetganger") is someone who travels by foot only. If you guide another vehicle by hand, or even a horse or cattle, you are legally considered a driver. Therefore, most laws concerning pedestrians have to make explicit allowances for walking a personal vehicle. For example, the primary Dutch Traffic Regulations [1]: The rules in this resolution concerning pedestrians apply equally to persons guiding by hand a motorbike, moped or bicycle [1] https://wetten.overheid.nl/jci1.3:c:BWBR0004825&hoofdstuk=I&artikel=2&z=2019-07-01&g=2019-07-01 https://wetten.overheid.nl/jci1.3:c:BWBR0004825&hoofdstuk=I&...
