Is the passive aggressive attitude really needed? People have accidents like that all the time. People hit stationary cars, run in to houses. The most dangerous place to be is on the hard shoulder of a motorway because lorries hit cars. The attitude just causes more aggression and pointless anger on the road.
Passive aggressive now ? That was not an accident - that was pure incompetence on the part of the knob on the cycle. You seen him ride for some amount of time before he actually run into the car that was stationary and parked. It had not just stopped it had not done anything untoward.
The cyclist could have killed himself. through not paying attention to the road in front of him.
Pretty accurately describes the comments about "the car driver needing to be taken to task". Passive aggressive and juvenile. You clearly have a problem with cyclists for some reason.
sorry if you take it like that. Im just amazed that he didnt do himself serious injury.
A friend of mine learned to drive with the same instructor I did. When she was parked up at the roadside facing downhill in the rain a cyclist coming down the hill with his head down against the weather hit the back of the car, went right through the rear window and landed on the back seat.

Or a cyclist. But that was on the internet. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=312_1375379869True story.
I too can confirm the back of cars hurt. Many years ago - and not much speed.
Nearly came a cropper last week - head down in the wind - suddenly the kerb is built out nearly three feet at a pedestrian crossing, with no paint on the tarmac to warn people of the narrowed road. Just avoided the kerb and the bollard that would have followed. Its not like I haven't been past it before either.
