1. Wouldn't the pedestrian have to walk through said car then? 2. Quite plausible, especially trying to heft what looks like a pretty heavy loaded bike onto a curb.

Maybe that car had stopped for the pedestrian. We're not going to actually know what happened until the video is released.

Random note: drivers, when you are on a two-plus lane road, do not randomly stop (when their is no designated yield) to let pedestrians cross/other drivers turn. Cars in the other lanes may (probably, even) not stop, causing an accident.

It probably is completely unrelated to this event, but it’s an anti-pattern by well-meaning drivers.
