Don't you know? He's the main character. NPCs are supposed to move out of his way.
Sounds like a lot of bikers I see blowing through red lights and stop signs. Obey the rules of the road or get on the sidewalk like a normal pedestrian.
Well actually, its usually much safer for a cyclists to keep moving at an intersection like that. It takes far less time for them to clear the intersection than coming to a full dead stop and starting again. I can see and hear everything on approach much better than anyone inside a 2 ton metal box. In some places its perfectly legal for a bicycle to treat stop sighs like a give way.
Getting on the sidewalk often has its own hazards, like the sidewalk randomly ending and starting again for no reason, people, and shop doors.
You know what has hazards? Riding in the road unprotected from 2 ton heavy machinery. You couldn't pay me to ride in the street when there are sidewalks available.
It's pure selfishness to demand others be responsible for your safety.
