I'm currently living in the armpit of my least favorite state ever...the drivers are rude, the streets are cratered and patched and cratered again...and some of the drivers in their big "Texas edition" pickup trucks are downright aggressive.
I know a gal who about two months ago was deliberately knocked off her bike by a high-speed side mirror to the back. Two broken ribs, an injured back, and a broken wrist. The group she was cycling with didn't manage to get a plate, because they were so stunned and trying to stop to help her. They did say that it was a seemingly deliberate engine gun and run away...and the jerk apparently accelerated into the hit.
