So the man is 77 - so what? He would also be allowed to drive a motor vehicle. The man went into the back of the car - could be true, as when she was starting off her speed would have been slow, doesn't make this the cyclist's fault. And the sun was bright!!! She should have been driving according to the weather conditions - it the roads are wet then reduce speed, if visibility is limited than wait until you are 100% certain that a change in direction will not affect another road user, and maybe consider visual aids (in this case sunglasses).
As for leaving the scene, this is an offence but the police will not prosecute as she went back. Unfortunately her attitude is shit - it just screams 'my life is more important than your life'.
Would be interesting to join mumsnet, but I can well imagine that would not publish posts containing the word CUNT...
