I don't see what the big deal is. I mean, sure, a motorist just nearly killed a woman shortly after someone was killed in a similar incident, but what's the big deal?
Unfortunately that's what I think most people think.

Wouldn't this be practically the same as someone pinching lightly, doing no permanent damage, and the other pulling out a gun and blowing the knee caps off the pincher?
The reaction seems unjustified is all we can say. Maybe the cyclist was being a ******, but even then, this should be filed as an attempted murder case. Because in court, "She was being a ******" doesn't work well as a defense statement.
