Cyclist hits and runs a parked car

If cyclists cannot even miss a GBFO parked car then what hope is there for
them?



POLICE are appealing for witnesses after a cyclist caused hundreds of pounds
of damage to a parked car in Chipping Sodbury.

It happened at 1.40am on Sunday, May 20 when the bike rider was cycling down
Rounceval Street and collided with a gold-coloured Nissan Qashqai parked on
the street.

A police spokesman said: "The collision caused serious damage to the car and
has forced the owner to pay his full £250 insurance excess to get the
repairs done.

"The cyclist was wearing a reflective jacket and following the collision he
came off his bike. Two passers-by helped the cyclist before he rode off
towards Yate.

"The damage has been reported to police and an investigation is underway."
Police want to speak to anyone who witnessed the collision or knows who the
cyclist was. In particular, the two people who helped the cyclist are asked
to contact police.

He should have left his car in a car park rather than cluttering the highway.

you may also note that the perpetrator is known, not just an anonymous

And if there was not a car park close?
