She waits a bit, the red man is still on and so she starts to cross the front of the bus. The lights now start changing to green. On the inside of the bus there's a fast moving cyclist, he can't see her for the big bus obscuring his view any she has no idea what's coming because she's stupid enough to walk in front of a ****ing bus.
The cyclist manages to avoid her, which would have been a dull one for both of them, but she takes a bad fall. The bus moved off before I could see how it ended but she was getting help up and didn’t look too hurt but i imagine she’ll have wanted to get seen to to check the baby was ok etc
She’s lucky it was a cyclist and not a car or bigger as anything going faster than the bike would have hit her.
All down to a really stupid decision to cross.
