I take it that you think knocking a cyclist off his bike and possibly


causing him/her serious injury or death is a reasoned response?




if it happened then it is unreasonable. I have noticed that cyclists


are seasoned liars and will even invent crashes and crimes to cover


their own stupidity.




And car drivers always tell the truth, huh?




I am reminded of a woman I worked with who used to cycle from Buxton to


Stockport every single day, rain, snow or shine. Until one day someone


drove into her and ruined her health for the rest of her days. She was


going through a green light and the car driver crashed a red. Needless


to say, that wasn't the tale that the car driver gave to the police.


Guess who the police believed.






I wonder if the people who knew the car driver believed his story over


the


woman's.




Did she tell you the true story - or was if from an independent witness.




Glug, glug.






Jimdeth, since motorists commonly leave cyclists for dead in the gutter


I would tend to believe the cyclist.




Commonly, eh?



I can't remember the last time I left a cyclist for dead in the gutter.


Not the first time that excuse has been tried.
