Before piling on - I suggest you take a look at where/how the car got hit - and what intersection.

I'm not gonna leave any comments given its a sensationalists article with a motivation to twist things anyway it can.

Not saying the cyclists was at fault here - just saying we're very much short on facts, and without them, I won't comment.

I've had a cyclist come at me head on at night on an unlighted road with dark clothes and dark skin. If it weren't for driving a narrow/agile car he'd of collided with me and likely been injured. He was totally in the opposing lane and quite unsafe. He'd of likely gotten injured - and I'd of likely gotten pissed at the damage to my car. Fortunately I spotted him and took rapid evasive action diving almost off the road into the opposing lane. If I'd sent a text at the last red light I just left, you'd probably want me crucified to...

So without any real facts as to the collision - I'd wait to pile on.
