Alternatively, since the description is somewhat lacking in detail, did the driver look to see if there was someone approaching the bit of the road he was pulling out into? I would imagine that, even in the notoriously easy driving tests common in the US, examinees are told to look before entering the road?
If the rider was simply cycling along the road and the driver was pulling out into it, then the probability of fault swings back to the driver.
That no charges were filed, given the frequent failure of LEOs to take any action even in flagrantly obvious cases of driver error, cannot, of itself, be put forward as cast-iron evidence of the driver not being at fault.
