I think Oliver's comment that its relatively unusual for someone to banged up for this sort of thing is worth bearing in mind.
I would guess that his Machiavellian antics with covering it up, threatening and trying to discredit his stable lad, washing the car of evidence and lying about how it / what happened, would have made a negative impression on the average judge (an oxymoron perhaps?) more than the fact that he drove dangerously at a cyclist. If he'd just stopped, owned up, called the ambulance, pleaded SMIDSY etc he'd have only got a slap on the wrist.
