Anyone own up?

I was never sure whether I like Mark Thomas as a comedian or not. I now am - that was hilarious! I love how the Senior Police Officer doesn't know what's going on round the corner from him.

I just read the comments on this story on the Evening Standard page...

Talk about exaggerating. I wouldn't want this copper testifying against me in court should I ever have the misfortune to be there. He wasn't hit by a cyclist, he was in a near-miss according to his account. To say he was nearly killed is about as logical as saying he was nearly raped by the cyclist. A collision didn't happen. Hypothecating about the result of what might have happened has no place in a responsible policeman's evidence!

- Richard, London

Come on, own up, who on here is 'Richard'?!

And here's the reason we look like we're trying to run peds down

I myself was very lucky to not being hit by a cyclist when walking out onto the pavement from my driveway.Now I look right and left to be sure to get out!
- Old Contemptible, Poole, England

He jokingly says "I'm a dick and don't look before walking out of my driveway."
