Default Scum driver in the dock for attacking woman

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."

Got to love the usual wrigging 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.

He "deliberately" knocked her off the bike by merely being "close" to her?

Was this the effect of some sci-fi aura surrounding his vehicle?

Oh... so it's changed from proximity to contact...

Interestingly (and leaving out all the *prosecution* stuff about the
contact actually occurring at the cyclist's instigation), the...

"Prosecutor Martin Hooper said: ‘ ...this was a completely unnecessary
accident.’

Hmmm... "Accident".

That's a peculiar word for the prosecution to use, even given that the
prosecution has already presented evidence that the cyclist moved into
contact with the motor vehicle rather than it being the other way round.

Isn't it?

Or the slamming of a cell door for attempted murder.

How kind of Mr Baker to record his own alleged misdemeanour. If found guilty I hope he is sentenced to an appropriately long community service. 500 hours picking up litter and dog excrement from along the Regent's Canal tow/cycle path, for example.

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.
