me for locking up a wheel avoiding hitting a woman walking into work via the loading bay

or

the woman for using an area with at least 3 signs stating "pedestrians prohibited from using this vehicular area"

โ“

she gave me a filthy look and raised her eyebrows, surely i was in the right to knock her down and run over her repeatedly?

seriously i can away feeling bad wondering what would have happened if i had hit her

Were you wearing a helmet?

You don't pay road tax

Locking wheel (It'll be the back wheel we are talking about) = poor brake technique. Practise required. ๐Ÿ˜‰

No, yes & yes you should have run her over again for good measure. ๐Ÿ™‚

Why was Mrs Thatcher walking in your loading bay anyway ?

locked up on a bald cx tyre, nothing to do with technique i assure you *coughs*, more to do with her stepping out from behind a van

it was a 29er, maybe it was because of the poor turning performance?

aaaah, I thought you were in a motorised vehicle.
Clarity from workplace required (assuming you are at work) about whether 'no pedestrians' means 'motor vehicles only'. I bet they never even considered it.

Simple roadcraft. You should have given the van plenty clearance and slowed down.
