Thanks for the info, Mary.
According to Novak, he didn’t see anyone.
Unlike you, precious, I have actually investigated traffic accidents, and my BS detector is activated on this one. Having seen too many incidents of insurance fraud, as well as having some asshole try and pull it on my Mom, and on me, I’ll wait until his insurance companie’s investigators get through looking into the complainant and the “bicyclist” witness. Funny, you never hear of this happening with a car that doesn’t look expensive, and most likely with insurance.
Even if it is true, there are these things known as accidents, and not necessarily an intentional act.
Then there are the bicyclists, ah yes. A mob of them attacked a man in Seattle when they were doing one of their “Block All Roads” massing things the other day, they beat him, knocked out the windows in his car, and slashed his tires.
More than once I have chased down a bicyclist that has caused an accident, and forced them to return to the scene of the vehicle accident they caused.

You can't find it so I must be making it up? Classic- you could just ask for a link instead of calling people liars. Here ya go, Princess:

The bicyclist, attorney David Bono, also disputes Novak's account: "There was a pedestrian splayed on his windshield -- I don't think there is any way you can miss that." Bono also said that the pedestrian was in a crosswalk and had the right of way.

So, you were there then, Preston!
You seem to keep making shit up, as I haven’t seen or heard any of the information you keep coming up with.

I don’t know- did the person who pounded on Barbara’s car also roll over the windshield?

This compulsive need to make excuses for illegal behavior is sick.

Barbara, it’s probably the same thing that happened with Novak, that happened to you.

Barbara, someone pounded your car once so it’s ok for Robert Novak to leave the scene after hitting someone with his car?!?

What the hell?

I am entirely sympathetic to Mr. Novak. I was driving home from church (really!) on a Sunday morning and came upon an odd cluster of people in the road, one running and two others riding bikes. There was little traffic, so I passed them. This was apparently poor etiquette- not illegal but deeply offensive to the group as they pounded my car as I passed. Mind you, I was going very slowly and giving them wide berth but I still managed to piss them off.

And don’t get me started on bicycles.

E.M. Zanotti had an interesting post about this event.

And?
Were you there?
That doesn’t mean it wasn’t a set up for insurance fraud.
There are many aggressive and dangerous drivers out there, no doubt, and you never know how little it will take to set them off.
