My wife had stopped as she could see what was going to happen.
I'd say so.
When I read the first post I also wondered if a warning had been sounded and if not, why not??

sounded or not, it does not excuse the actions of the cyclist but the insurers may believe that the incident could have been avoided if a warning had been given

Highly unlikely. I'd imagine this all took places in a few seconds during which the OP's Mrs was concentrating on bringing the car to a safe halt thereby minimising any subsequent injuries to the cyclist even though they were the result of his own actions.

M'lud.
