It was three years ago that a 49-year-old woman had an outburst and swore at a cyclist on a sidewalk in Huntingdon, England. The 77-year-old cyclist was then forced to steer into the street, where he was hit and died.

The woman claims that the situation arose because of her cerebral palsy and a visual impairment. But the judge doesn’t buy it, who believes that the woman behaved “territorially when it comes to the sidewalk”.
