Says it all. The provocative camera-wielding psycholist concerned is no doubt pretending to the police that he was petrified, when really he must have thought all his Christmases had come at one: not only did he get an opportunity to land a selfish driver in trouble, but he didn't even have to suffer any injury in order to do so! The best of both worlds! He must have been laughing himself silly just afterwards. No doubt he's being congratulated from pillar to post by email.

Well done that car-hater. The trouble is that every time one of these spurious videos is handed to the police, they're liable to take real videos of actual unprovoked attacks less seriously. And then we'll get moaning from the usual suspects on here that that's happening, because they can (or will) never see the connection between the provocation of motorists that they advocate and the payout that all cyclists experience as a result of it.
