That must be a quandary for a motorist - a traffic warden getting
attacked. Do they applaud the cyclist or not?

Meanwhile - more violent car drivers:

Why a quandary?

I never fall foul of traffic wardens. Why would I wish to see one attacked?

Me neither, but I hear they are hated amongst a large cross section of
motorists.
Can't see why myself, they do a good job.

I sometimes take the trouble to thank them for their efforts and ask
them to keep up their good work.

Living up to your name again Simple Simon?

Motorists disliking traffic wardens is understandable perhaps, but why would
a psycholist attack someone who presented no threat to him?

Or as we know it, another OT link to divert attention from law breaking
cyclists.

a kid's toy, not a viable form of transport.

most likely it was not a 'true' cyclist, but a motorist using a cycle for
the attack, relying on the anonymity that the unregistered bicycle allows.
