It's not your place to lecture other road users by shouting at them after the event. Also, something tells me that if you had been replaced by a motorist then it wouldn't still be the pedestrian's fault in your book.

Finally, a bell would have helped there, wouldn't it? But you had to get rid of yours as a childish rebellion against the fact that all new bikes have to be sold with them on. For god's sake, do you actually care about road safety *at all*, or is it all about being a disobedient cyclist for the sake of it?
