We've been told here - loads of times - that a collision between a motor
vehicle and a bicycle cannot injure the driver, so the report must be a
fabrication.

Unless of course, one takes a moment to consider whether a second motor
vehicle might of had something to do with the driver's condition.

That is an outrageous comment.

Once might be bad luck but twice in two days clearly means the driver is
not taking enough care.

He was doing 15mph and being extra careful this time.

Does that mean that a bicycle wasn't involved, then?

I expect it got caught in the scrum.
