A better subject line would be:
"Dangerous hit-and-run motorist who uses car as a weapon escapes
prison"

A normal person would have. Mr O'Donnell isn't normal.

Look, cyclists love to get riled up, I am pandering to you, it is my
job. What would you have otherwise?

Of course the fact that the cyclist leant through the passenger window and struck the 10 year old child in the passenger seat wouldn't be provocation.

"A CAR driver who deliberately hit a cyclist and drove away after
knocking him off his bike has been given a 12-month suspended prison
sentence."

I should think so, an' all.

They always attack the one in a group that they think will be least able to
defend themselves.

You goons must have struggled with English comprehension when you were at school.

I agree that it might - at a pinch - have been rendered slightly
differently:

"Look, cyclists love to get riled up; I am pandering to you, it is my
job. What would you have otherwise?".

But either version is comprehensible.

Which bit are you struggling with?
