Here is a perfect example why we people need take time slow down and watch the cross walks. I see it time and time again.. Some fault is the bikers and motorists. I see many bikers mainly teenager darting across crawford weaving traffic you kids are asking to get killed. Also bikers need to remember to obey there traffic cross walk signals. Im glad this young girl was ok...
