When I found my car (yes, sorry, I’m also a world-polluting driver) badly damaged, and a note on the windscreen I thought ‘great – an honest man!’
When I phoned the number, it was for the local Samaritans help line.
I hope this is one of those rare, genuine cases – but I wouldn’t hold my breath…

Whereas many people in car-centric societies, such as the UK seem to believe that a person who rides a bicycle has become a member of a different species, undeserving of any consideration or rights due to human beings. In-fact, some individuals seem to be maddened into a red-mist fury upon seeing someone riding a bicycle.

These people are very sick and should never be allowed to drive.
