Yes, and because he was a bullying, self righteous scumbag he certainly got what he deserved.Motorist shouldn't have done it,it's paramount to bullying.
Apart from driving without due care...
Scumbags shouldn't use their car as weapons we all know that.
Assuming the motorist thought (wrongly or rightly) you were in the wrong does not excuse his behaviour. Similarly thinking him in the wrong does not excuse yours.
You admit you attempted theft. He has a right to take reasonable defensive action and the result appears to be criminal damage. What you have written here (and some police are able to read you know) should be enough if they can be bothered to pursue you.
Of course if the station sergeant has experienced bad cyclist behaviour he might just be tempted to do so. I wouldn't blame him. Actions like yours just provokes even more resentment by other motorists which increases the danger to us all.
Thanks.
I spoke on the 'phone with someone from Hull (Kingston Upon) today, she said '595', but it sounded like 'faarv, naarn, faarv'
Are you sure he didn't say, 'I can see your faarge', and you could have said, 'It's not a Faarge, it's a Pashley'
