What nice people these drivers are. QUOTE:

"A delivery driver deliberately knocked a female cyclist off her bike
after she flashed a V-sign at him, a court heard today.

Dennis Baker, 67, was captured on his own onboard CCTV beeping his horn
at Alison Kempster and groaning 'Come on get out of the bloody way.'

Annoyed by her sticking two fingers up in response, Baker then pulled up
alongside the cyclist and edged closer and closer to her until she fell
off into the road, jurors were told."

Nugent's on his way over, to tell us all how the cyclist was 'a sociopath'....

Got to love the usual wriggling in court.

"He also admitted hearing a bang but claimed he thought he had driven over a manhole and didn't realise he had knocked the cyclist off."

The only 'bang' he should have heard should have been the report of a Glock
30.

Or the slamming of a cell door for attempted murder.

I doubt that there was an intent to kill, which is required for attempted murder. (For murder an intent to cause serious harm is required).

At the bottom of the article it says that Baker, who, it seems, lives at 71 Pembury Avenue, KT4 8BU, denies dangerous driving. I wonder why he wasn't charged was assault causing actual bodily harm.
