I read it that she's been on the receiving end of racism since the video went viral.So Shayna's claiming he was racist cycling...

Dash cams and bike cams are really making life easy for the Police aren't they! As easy as ANPR and average speed cameras; all they have to do it sit tight and wait until somebody naughty drives past then tweet the result to give the impression they're all over the motoring public.
sadly none. Vine won't even be charged with obstruction. Worse still he'll keep his job, and bore us all to tears with meaningless graphics at the next General Election.

I'm not sure why you think he is worse than her. I spent a few minutes googling it, and obstructing the highway is a traffic offence, with a maximum fine of £1000, and I assume usually a FPN of much less (please correct me if I am wrong), while she has been charged with a criminal assault, with potential of incarceration and a record. Maybe it's because I don't watch broadcast TV or listen to radio 2 (I had to google him), but she seems the much more serious offender here.
Oh, yeah, I think if I knew him, I'd hate him. But I hope that's not why you think he is the more serious offender here
Full disclosure: I have stood my ground when a looney came it me, lights and horns a-blazing.

I think he's worse than her because he clogs up the airwaves trivialising that which should be trivialised, and he (in company with the dreadful Peter Walker and most of the LCC) is a cycling miserabilist who seems not to enjoy riding a bike. Other than that I don't much care either way.

Did you miss out a "not" there?
I'm a lucky chap, I've managed to avoid him so far. Which possibly explains why I have such a sunny disposition.
I did - apologies

not only are you showing your age, you're inviting a lecture from @swansonj - which is always welcome!

As long as there's some pylon action, I'll be happy.

Always happy to give a lecture. Anything particular in mind? In fact, I was thinking of heading over to "400 ppm" or "wind turbines work" to ask whether anyone else has been tracking the recent absolutely phenomenal rate of installation of solar PV?
