Inspector Ian Jones said: “This was a particularly heartless incident

“For the offender to then assault a member of the public who was trying
to help is completely unacceptable.

I think this more about the location rather than the mode of transport.
This is standard behaviour for 'people' from Liverpool.

Nonense.

It was typical behaviour for male cyclists in all parts of the Kingdom
(particularly, though not exclusively, towards women). In this NG, we
see many reports af male cyclists behaving insultingly, aggressively and
even violently towards females, irrespective of the transport mode of
the females, though lone females in cars (whether or not accompanied by
children) seem to feature disproportionately as the victims.

I will agree that I would expect more of it in north Liverpool than in
the the more salubrious and civilised south end of the conurbation. Most
cities exhibit some analogous geographical variance.
