I'm happy to be corrected and hadn't seen that side of the story put across before.
I wasn't so much intending to draw attention to who is responsible for the accidents though - the wider point I was trying to address is that a bike being rode dangerously can, surprise surprise, present a real danger.

There don't appear to be that many cases reported in the media and this was the only one I could recall off hand. Anecdotally though there are loads of cases I've heard about from colleagues and friends in what is really quite a small town with low cyclist numbers.
