Hit-and-run motorist strikes cyclist on pavement in shocking road rage incident Cyclist Don Codman was attacked after warning the driver about using his phone behind the wheel cycling
A cyclist was injured in a hit-and-run road rage attack after a motorist allegedly took exception to the bike rider pointing out that he shouldn’t be using his phone while driving. The driver then sped after the cyclist before mounting a pavement and knocking the man from his bike.
“I debated whether to say anything, but I stopped and tapped on the window. I was just carrying on normally, I was not aggressive at all,” he said. Codman continues: “I wasn’t being aggressive, but the driver flew off the handle. He was clearly using his car as a weapon.” Despite the shocking hit-and-run, Codman says the incident won’t put him off commuting to work by bike.“Everyone knows there are idiots about, so who knows what will happen. For him to react as he did was just totally wrong.”
“This was a very distressing incident for the cyclist involved and we are carrying out a number of enquiries into this matter,” Police Constable Matthew Batter“I would urge anyone who witnessed what happened or may have captured anything of relevance on dashcam footage to please get in touch.
