No. The law is pretty clear. Someone else’s moving violation doesn’t indemnify you.

She still had an obligation to not impact the bike by operating the vehicle in a way she could stop in time. Which by the way is a question on the written exam or used to be 15 or so years ago.

So she’s in the wrong for hitting him. She’s also wrong for leaving the scene.

Right, and I'm happy the law does its best to protect the most people. But we, as human beings, can understand context. I can't say for sure that I would have been able to avoid hitting him. I can say that I would not have left the scene.
