How Is This Bicyclist Still Alive?

Raphael Orlove of Jalopnik proposes that this woman is the reincarnation of escape artist Harry Houdini. This dashcam footage from Taiwan shows a bicyclist crossing a street. A car hits the front of her bike. She's within a few inches of getting hit herself. But she neatly steps off the bicycle with perfect poise.

I think it's the other way around -- it seems that the cyclist was crossing while the motorists had a green, and the pedestrian is crossing once it turns red.

I can't believe nobody checks to see if the cyclist is alright or not though.

1. I like how the guy gets out of his car, not to check on the cyclist, but to make sure his car wasn't damaged by flying bicycle parts.
2. The next woman in the crosswalk appears to be eager to be the next victim, since she is crossing against the light!
