Hate to say it, but that wouldn't work. Cyclists get neither sympathy nor attention from the public.

I have a friend of mine who is a VERY competitive cyclist. While out training a couple of years ago, an inattentive moron driving a BMW happened to just cut the wheel without thinking and had 6 or 7 of their team slam into the side of her car (they were doing intervals down a long, open road early in the morning - this lady was the only other person there, passed about 20 or 30 of them on the left and then just decided, "gee, I think I'll just turn here" and cut the wheel without warning directly in front of the pace-setters). The team "detained" the lady & called the cops. They showed up and basically said (rudely) that there was no serious injury so not to waste their time, and that the team was on thin ice for detaining the woman at the scene. Lady actually threatened to sue the cycling team for the damage to her car - don't know whether she ever did. A bunch of bikes were damaged, lots of bruises and scrapes, etc. I'm fairly certain it was either Santa Monica or Marina Del Rey (forget which). Several phone calls "up the ladder" with the department/city got nowhere.

That's what you're up against.
