How could the taxi on your left be farther into the intersection than you were??? Did the cyclist ride THROUGH the taxi?

Your story really doesn't make much sense.

Wait... was the cyclist approaching from the right? That would make more sense... and change the entire scenario...

If the cyclist was approaching from the right and entered the intersection then he was trying to run the red and it would have been 100% his fault.
