according to the witness there was an "accident"... car hits cyclist, cyclist slams car with backpack. I think zero jail time and maybe probation, not even sure it'll hurt his career.

Raajiv Rajadurai, 23, and a friend were driving east on Bloor when then noticed that a car in the westbound lane had struck a cyclist. The accident didn't look serious, but the biker seemed aggitated.

Mr. Rajadurai said he saw the the cyclist slam his backpack onto the car's hood and then grab the driver's side mirror as the vehicle sped away.

"The driver was going so fast that at one point the biker was holding on to his car and there were sparks coming from the bottom of his shoes," he said.

"It seemed like the driver was trying to shake him off because he turned really suddenly, put on the brakes, jetted it one last time and then all your hear is three thumps and then the guy falls on the floor."

Mr. Rajadurai said that when he got out of his car he noticed that the cyclist wasn't moving. He wasn't wearing a helmet.
