I don’t understand why he didn’t get a U-lock in the teeth. Honestly, though, he’s attacking cyclists with his car, and he got to leave completely uninjured and with no damage to his vehicle.
Then the cyclist gets hit with an assault charge. Police response looked prompt and legally correct from the video, so absolutely the right call to handle it completely legally.
Cyclist was struck (iirc) three times while bystanders witnessed and shouted at him. At this time there was no indication there would be timely police intervention. I’m not advocating, I’m just finding it surprising. If it was one skater getting attacked in front of other skaters, by a dude driving in a skate park, I feel like there would be a set of trucks through that window.

Assault with a deadly weapon. The driver should get charged.
