I still can't quite envisage how that happened. I'm inclined to think the
student was pratting around, but then the taxi should have been travelling at
an appropriate speed *not* to hit him.


I've almost been hit on Prince Consort Road where empty taxis (and cars)
speed
up when somone starts to cross (to get passed before the pedestrian?).
Taxis with customers in seem to stop though
