Driver tries to kill cyclist, hits building.

[Mugshot]

its an audi and screams look at me which appeals to a certain mind set
(edit id like to point out most people who have cars of over 100hp are unable to handle them they just think they are. in most cases the driver hits their limit before the car reaches what it is capable of)

ok my car screams look at me (was mine now wifes) but for possibly all the wrong reasons
one thats on the black side of humour
im 16 stone 5 feet 11 inches with a 20 inch collar 50 inch chest get the drift?
i also have long blonde hair some children liken me to a certain film hero (quite cool at times as sometimes mums take a good long second look some dads do too...)
my old car is a fiat multipla (4 kids so 6 seats...)
my wife has decorated it with all manner of vinyl stickers mostly flowers and hippy chic logos....
i always find it funny when (and it is always these two) white van men or motorcyclists pull alongside and peer in and see my beardy mug under the blond mop and all of a sudden have an urge to either brake and vanish from view behind me or try and do a road runner act to get away
one slightly darker incident when an idiot cut me up in it and then slapped on the brakes got out as i had the temerity to use my road rage lights (aka frog eyes on the multipla) who suddenly found a reason to get back into his little red k plate bmw when i stepped down from the drivers side, i guess he expected some little blond thing to get out

Lets see a film hero with long blond hair and a big chest...... Is it Diana Dors?

How many points is that?[/QUOTE]
I too drive a Skoda, but am merely partially follicly challenged. Do I get more or less points than MP?

I'd be interested in any updates to this case. Driver sounds like a ringer for my demented neighbour. Not just the same car, but the highly volatile reaction and behaviour - very familiar stuff to me.

 

[jonny jeez]

so...its November now...is there any update on her charge?

I'm guessing she plead not guilty and got bailed for a few more months.

Didn't the cyclist involved post in this thread?

Unless there was some other attack by the cyclist that hasn't been reported, I'd say kicking a car wouldn't justify an arrest for attempted GBH.

if the cyclist kicked the car, the car was driving too close...

Perhaps.

Does anyone know the outcome of this case? Last I read the driver was arrested on suspicion of attempted GBH and bailed until Sep 2014.

A mother allegedly tried to mow down a cyclist and ploughed into a hair salon in her Audi 4x4 after an argument in a Kingston street, a court has heard.

Natalie Pyne, 31, of Mount Pleasant Road, New Malden, is accused of attempted grievous bodily harm after driving into autistic Simon Edgley in Park Road on June 7 last year.

Kingston Crown Court heard this afternoon how Mrs Pyne got out of her car and had an argument with cyclist Mr Edgley after an alleged near miss between the two.


Mr Edgley is said to have kicked her white Audi Q7 after which Mrs Pyne allegedly reversed her car, aimed at the victim and attempted to run him over.

Witnesses described seeing Mr Edgley "roll over" the bonnet of the car before it smashed through the Park Salon window.

Louisa Morris, who had been in her parents’ house opposite at the time of the crash, told the court: "There seemed to be an argument about a potential collision.

"I remember hearing loud revs of an engine and then tyres squealing. "It all happened very fast.

"The cyclist was hit by the front of the car and pushed off his bike. He rolled over the bonnet coming off the side."


Anna Best had been waiting at the junction of New Road and Park Road next to the salon.

She told the court she saw an argument between Mrs Pyne and Mr Edgley and a teenage boy in the Audi shout at the victim who "kicked the car multiple times."

She said: "A boy, who I assume was her son, started to have a go [at the cyclist.] "He [Mr Edgley] was kicking the car in quite a comical manner.

"The lady who was driving was quite aggressive in her behaviour."

After Mr Edgley started to cycle off Mrs Best recalled allegedly seeing the defendant reversing before driving towards the cyclist and into the salon.

She said: "I just remember thinking why are you reversing? She was moving in an aggressive manner. I was really shocked."

Mrs Pyne denies attempted GBH, dangerous driving and destroying property.

The trial continues.

Thank you for the latest news @glenn forger . I have been worrying about the state of the Audi and the hair salon for far too long

It's murder if it's a copper.

It's murder if it's a copper.

It's murder if they are killed.

 

[Karlt]

Ironically, the intent bar for intended murder is higher than for murder.

For attempted murder, the intent must be to kill.

For murder, the intent only has to be to cause serious injury.

the hair salon for far too long

Did you see the comment below the article? The hair salon didn't survive

The scum who killed the Liverpool copper could say they were trying to get away and didn't know anyone was on the central reservation strip. In this case there doesn't seem to be any doubt the driver used two tons of metal to deliberately aim at someone.
