I do not normally read The New Paper but someone brought this to my attention. I could not read it online so after some searching, I came across the same story in Stomp. After reading it, I started feeling sad and angry at the same time....sad for the parents who got knocked down by that bastard and angry at the bastard that did a hit and run and gave all of us cyclists a bad name. In the Stomp article, the guy Abdul Halil said that it was a Bangladeshi or Indian that knocked his wife and their baby daughter down but the New Paper failed to mention that. Automatically, all cyclists will be labelled as reckless, and that I cannot take lying down.
To all you cyclists out there. Be careful when riding on the pavement, if you must ride there. Always give way to pedestrians and if you do knock someone down, accidentally or otherwise, do the right thing and say sorry and give them all the assistance they need. The last thing we want to be a is a nation that looks down at cyclists in general.
I hope that bastard that did that cowardly thing gets his just desserts.

I was cycling around bedok at night towards th bedok interchange skatepark when i accidentally knock a lady,i then immediately stopped and apologised with all my heart and have a feeling that i feel guilty when suddenly a man whom i think it was her husband insulted me even though i also said sorry to him and so since he insulted me i immediately cycle of as fast as i could from the site and because of that ichange into a skater instead of a biker(please advice me on what to do)
