It was an 81 year old man and his partner, you insensitive idiot. He began to cross when the bus was stopped. the bus did not see him or his partner and went right though. Maybe you should get the whole story before you make comments like this…

They must have been wearing dark clothing or trying to flag-down the last bus run? I feel for their families and loved ones, and I hope the surviving victim recovers well. You are in our prayers.

Those crosswalks in West Hollywood are terrible. I have driven through there in the evening and come very close to hitting someone. They do not light up and if someone is wearing dark clothes or crosses without looking, then it’s super easy for a driver to miss them. Poorly designed.
