Apparently, he didn't.

From experience and from many other confirmed reports from other
incidents...

....including early reports of this incident...

... it seems more credible that the cyclist did swear at the
parents and ride away. However, even if we ignore the allegation of
swearing, a crime occurred, was witnessed and filmed.

What is particularly incredible is the claim that he did not know that
it was illegal to ride on the footway.

....and he's supposed to be a clever chap.

What is indisputable is that he WAS riding on the footway and that he
did crash into and injure a small child...

....and then rode away.

Had he not ridden away, there would be no reason for the Independent to
report that he handed himself in at the police station the next day.
