To me it doesn't even mater.I've almost gotten my feet squished by an old guy driving a truck. I drove right up onto the curb while looking the opposite way he was turning.

It would be interesting to know the particulars of how the crash occurred. e.g. did the driver have the right of way or was the cyclist on the street or sidewalk etc.
