[QUOTE 3163381, member: 45"]No, it means what it says. Legally, it refers you to the relevant law if necessary.
You're misinterpreting the HTC.[/QUOTE]
and you are ignoring the entire section of the highway code that covers pedestrians and focusing entirely on the bike bit. Yes you should avoid an accident if you can, that's a no shoot sherlock thing, but that does not make you at fault if you are unable to avoid the accident because someone else was not following the part of the highway code relevant to them and walked right out without giving you time to react.
The rules in the highway code may not give you right of way, but their are other laws, both government made and natural selection. A pedestrian simply does not have the right to wander out into the road as they wish, and people who think that they should be able to should go to visit Nepal and see the absolute madness and death that it brings.
