Not everyone cares about this sort of thing and maybe she forgot or couldn't go shopping because of something.

There are hundreds of things a city could do that she may not care about. There are signs, bollards, protective barriers, and notices. Then on top of that going to the store she probably had to cross it once and didn't stop to think about maybe she should just go tomorrow. This is on her.

If she can wait for a huge flock of car to pass the whole year she can wait for a whole pack of cyclist on a legally registered race to pass that's only on this road for a single day. That's a whole bunch of excuse for selfish reason.

No, she's just an impatient idiot putting people, and herself, in danger, and it's baffling that you're defending such behaviour. Look at the reaction of the official on the left. They were clearly in view when she decided to cross.

Yea fuck all the people who do care! This one lady was mildly inconvenienced!

I dunno eternal, it really just looks like this person was really impatient. Gates weren't blocking the entire crosswalk, other people were waiting, personnel weren't on the road either (usually a sign of imminent arrival). I know videos show a preferred context but why not just listen to every other person there.

This is how people get seriously injured in bike races like this. I watched it again, she went between the motorcycles on the motorcade... Like come on.
