Another angry dangerous nutcase driver on the loose!
At least he later admitted his guilt and paid up after coming to his senses.

Someone that easily angered and quick to resort to physical violence has no place driving a motor vehicle. Ever.

this absolutely should have been prosecuted. The cyclist de-escalated the situation by attempting to leave. Even if the language was provocative, that act negates any defence of provocation. It's common assault and should be dealt with as such.
