First, I'm not totally convinced that[b] bikes flying at speed across an intersection[/b] would not be partially at fault under some tort regimes.

Second, this is about a parents' duty to avert known hazards.  Which these parents did not do.

The more you try to argue that the parents did nothing wrong, the more I think that it really is true that most people biking with kids are as dumb and reckless as I thought.

Is that what you see in this video?

Both drivers broke the law, endangering a child, and your argument is that the PARENTS did something wrong?[/quote]

Absolutely. What part of DEFENSIVE biking do you not understand? If your idea is that it's a good idea to talk your small children out biking IN A CITY and just assume that they'll always be seen and drivers will always be cautious ... and that you can ignore safe biking rules that experienced ADULT cyclers live by ... then I don't know what to tell you except STAY OFF THE ROAD WITH YOUR KID.
