Clearly, society as a whole have learned nothing from the crashes of the past caused by spectators. There was even another event with fatality earlier this year.

Can anyone answer…”Why did the Brit cross the road?”

To colonize the other side.

Sure let me take a 2 kilometre detour while trying to get groceries home because you blocked my way to watch people riding bikes.

I mean they stopped the crossing because the riders were literally around the corner. She could have waited another 15 seconds and crossed then.
That was the main pack so maybe she was waiting from the lead pack(s) till that moment but she should have just waited. Every race I’ve been to the volunteers know people can only make people wait so long before someone like this comes along.

If crossing a indycar race is shameful why would this be considered any less shameful or less dangerous?
Hell, this was probably more dangerous because a cyclist flying off their bike would be more exposed to broken bones and death then a driver in a indycar.
The pedestrian could have seriously killed one or more cyclists if they crossed a few seconds late.

Even still, could have used a little caution and speed, not risk people’s lives. Fuck.
