Not wanting to labour the point, but the reason people are angry about this is that they know this is at least his 3rd incident (self-confessed on various blog posts) where a cyclist has come off his bike. He's also continually expressed his disdain for cyclists and even posted about his intentions only to stop for pedestrians crossing zebra crossings etc, not people *on* bicycles. The police won't see this. The police won't take this into account. If they do anything it will be a slap on the wrist as he passes it off as an accident (and didn't he mention that the cyclist was on the phone!) and that will be the end of it. He'll still be riding around out there with his prejudice against cyclists until we have hit number 3,4,5,6... this is not about whether the victim wants to take this further, this is about seeing that he's a danger, from his own self-incriminating video and the frame of mind he has in the run up to this incident (which is shown in the video as soon as he starts harping on about running red lights, something which the cyclist in the video hadn't done). He had absolutely no remorse for the poor sod knocked off his bike. If this were an accident most normal people's first reaction would be shock and apologies. There was neither of these. Just a look of disgust at the wheel of the bicycle stuck in the motorbike, an immediate blaming of the cyclist for being on the phone (despite that having to impact on what happened at all). There is a legitimate feeling from those commenting on this forum that he needs to be punished for this and experience tells all of us (I am guessing) that nothing significant will come from the police as a result of any investigation.
