OOps, this is going to upset a few people.........
Firstly let me say that I am glad that your wife is ok, and that it is inexcusable for the driver to act in the manner he did.
But unfortunately what I have noticed in my short time on this forum is that the car driver is an evil 2 headed, horned psychopath.
I have lost count of the amount of times pedestrians have crossed the rear of my car whilst I was reversing out of a space.
The clue is in the name, CAR Park, there will be cars moving around, reversing etc.
I believe it is the responsibility of BOTH pedestrians and drivers to respect each others situation. And observing what is happening around them is the responsibilty of BOTH, it can't all be left up to the car driver.
How many times do we read on here the antics that pedestrians get up to, and how abusive you (cyclists) are to them.
If the car was reversing, then it's reversing light(s)would have been showing, that gives a clue.
I reiterate that he should not have been abusive and drive off..
I cycle, I drive (and to stir it up even more. I drive a 4x4 and yes I do give a damn about others), I ride a motor scooter and I walk. Each brings it's own set of responsibilities.
It is not my intention to offend, far from it, but there are always 2 sides.
Well that's hardly won me any popularity awards.............
