Yes, I'm aware of peripheral vision, and no I don't believe you're capable of perceiving the things you're claiming you can from those pictures. Does your peripheral vision selectively blur faces and detect and predict movement from a series of still images? This literally has absolutely nothing to do with how peripheral vision cues work--peripheral vision is good at detecting movement, but not details. You are literally trying to infer movement from details in still pictures here without actually seeing the movements between those pictures, completely different process.
You're wrong, there's distortion introduced by the whole lens arrangement and peculiar perspective, and it's made worse when you "zoom in" by magnifying areas. Do you have any more stupid, uninformed insulting questions you want to hurl at me or can we call it a day?

There's enough details to be had on those blurred faces in google streetview. The nose, ears, and eyes can be made out and the direction where the head is turned.
You must be color blind if you can't see it.
Take this test. (except for the personality and lantern test, the lantern test is unavailable). I had perfect score on all these tests.

You can also have basic details on peripheral vision but obviously not the finer details but it's enough to extrapolate useful info. Extrapolation comes with experience and possibly triggered by more stressful situations like driving in rush hour traffic everyday for example.

All information shown so far shows:
-both riders are moving slowly, under 10 mph
-the rider in white shirt saw the other rider well in advance
-he didn't hit the suspected pothole at least not until after the collision
-he did have plenty of room to stop if he had working brakes or the ability to operate the brakes
-vehicular traffic follows the standard "keep right" rule for two way traffic
-The plastic bag on the handlebar and not wearing helmets is not the cause of the accident
Perhaps what you may not understand in most countries around the world, cyclist are free to do anything on the road and no cop will pull them over for breaking road laws like running a red light, overspeeding, and riding on the wrong side of the road.
However, in light of safety, it would serve you best if you follow the basic laws for vehicular traffic like stopping on red light, and avoid riding on the opposite side of the road. Chance of accidents increase if you behave on the road contrary to what the majority is doing because you'll be much more unpredictable and in many circumstances, road users won't expect your presence in some situations so would not be looking your way.
