A judge decided that law enforcement wrongly cited a victim of a violent encounter. Given historical precedent and the common view of cyclists as an "out group" its not a stretch to speculate about bias. And if it's the speculation that you are upset about...then internet fora are probably not your jam.


The actual police report or news reports about the collision, not just what happened in the ER, might shed some light on this incident.
I doubt that a police report written by law enforcement officers who were ruled to have misapplied the law will shed light on this incident.
