No, because that would fall under the
Pedestrian Act of Saskatchewan. I know, because that's what the first lady I talked to on the phone thought my claim would fall under that act if I was struck on a bicycle. I was quick to point out that cyclists aren't really pedestrians though

In my province, motorists are required to have a higher respect for pedestrians (and it does say cyclists too), no-matter what the case. The loophole is with the cyclists I suppose.
