Dumbassery in London.. and elsewhere

Today nearly had the ubiquitous pedestrian step in front of me without looking. Fortunately was able to stop without falling.  But it was funny because the same day a friend of mine sent me this:   http://imgur.com/gallery/jZvpbwY

The IMGUR page shows a video clip of a English  cyclist approaching a street crossing, with various pedestrians here and there.  The cyclist goes behind one of the peds and is going to mske it through ok, but the ped sees him and turns around and then steps in front of him.

The title of the video is that once a ped is crossing you have to stop by UK law. However, others responding to the post pointed out if the ped is out of the way you can go behind him.  That makes sense.  Either way,
