Even though you are 200 times more likely to be mown down on a
pavement by a motor vehicle than a pedal cycle you have clearly made
this story up because motorists never break the law.

Indeed, injuries and death don't count when a driver does something
stupid, negligent or incompetent whereas a cyclist seen breaking the
rules is a matter for serious wailing and gnashing of teeth.
