But surely if the cyclist did not set off a the same time as the driver then the collision would not have happened?
I set off at the same time as lots of drivers and they don't deliberately swerve into me.

I really shouldn't be amazed at the amount of cyclists on here who are happy to bend over and spread their cheeks.
As do I, but from the OP and a hypothetical point of view I tend not to engage any further then I need to, that would potentially bring me into furthur conflict after the fact has been asertained that the driver will not listen to reason.
In such a situation the other party is usually a long way down the road before I set off. This is after making a note of the reg/company of course.
Yes, none of that has anything to do with your claim that the driver's actions were caused by the cyclist.
Right oh, but this is accepting road rage as one of those things, just cos you have an argument/discussion with your other half doesn't mean you are inviting violence. Is there a parallel?
I never said it was,
Is it wrong? Are you saying that a person commits a knife attack but only manages to inflict a flesh wound should get the same charge brought as another person who opens up an artery and kills someone?
Do you believe that the cyclist did the right thing? Do you believe that whilst he was lying in his hospital bed he was thinking "At least I didn't spread my cheeks."? Are you suggesting that we should get in the face of anybody that we decide has wronged us?I really shouldn't be amazed at the amount of cyclists on here who are happy to bend over and spread their cheeks.
