QUOTE:
The Road Traffic Act 1988 requires a ***driver*** to stop if an
accident has occurred due to the presence of their vehicle that
results in injury to another person, livestock animal, dog, or damage
to another's property. The ****driver**** must then give their name
and address at the scene to anyone reasonably requiring it, and if
there has been an injury to another person, they must produce their
****certificate of insurance**** to anyone reasonably requiring it.
Anyone failing to stop or provide such details must report the
incident in person to a police station or police constable as soon as
practicable, and in all cases within 24 hours.[23][24]
Failing to stop, and failing to report, carry a maximum sentence of 6
months in imprisonment, a £5000 fine and a ****driving**** ban ENDS

So cyclists feel free to kill ot maim vulnerable pedestrians and then
scarper.
