People were crossing the street the same way the SUV was going, so it looks like the kid ran a red and payed for it. Eyes up and open when you ride!

I'm surprised more people don't die like that. People on motorbikes and scooters just race through red lights and drive up behind you on sidewalks, and then get mad at you of course, for being on the sidewalk

FAQ

What does this mean?

The amount of karma (points) on your post and Reddit account has decreased by one.

Why did you do this?

There are several reasons I may deem a post to be unworthy of positive or neutral karma. These include, but are not limited to:

  • Rudeness towards other Redditors,

  • Spreading incorrect information,

  • Sarcasm not correctly flagged with a /s.

Am I banned from the Reddit?

No - not yet. But you should refrain from making posts like this in the future. Otherwise I will be forced to issue an additional downvote, which may put your commenting and posting privileges in jeopardy.

I don't believe my post deserved a downvote. Can you un-downvote it?

Sure, mistakes happen. But only in exceedingly rare circumstances will I undo a downvote. If you would like to issue an appeal, shoot me a private message explaining what I got wrong. I tend to respond to Reddit PMs within several minutes. Do note, however, that over 99.9% of downvote appeals are rejected, and yours is likely no exception.

How can I prevent this from happening in the future?

Accept the downvote and move on. But learn from this mistake: your behavior will not be tolerated on Reddit.com. I will continue to issue downvotes until you improve your conduct. Remember: Reddit is privilege, not a right.
