That shower of glass will certainly have taught it a lesson.
Orang Utan do you drive? It needs concentration. No one has sympathy for dangerous drivers.

Some more pesky facts:
Because despite motorists engaging in violent road rage incidents every day - sometimes with fatal results - this one with no injuries whatsoever INVOLVED A CYCLIST and therefore is very important and must herald the start of compulsorily enforced bike registration schemes that will cost millions and be a spectacular waste of money.

What about pedestrians? I bet I can find multiple news stories of a pedestrian getting the rage and doing something similar. Why is it such a crazy notion that pedestrians should be as accountable as any other road user if they are going to etc etc?
Boris bikes are all individually numbered btw. Do you know how many police reports (or general complaints? On my phone so haven't fact checked what the number relates to) there have been using a Boris bike registration?
Zero.
10-20kg Bikes (which will rarely exceed 25mph) don't present the same level of risk as 1 - 2 tonne cars (which will usually exceed 25mph), so they are treated differently, and rightly so.

If he had smashed the sunroof rather than a window, would it have made him more or less psychotic, in your opinion?

If a car driver smashed another car's window over a baby and then fled the scene, it probably would be. That's the story here, not 'driver and cyclist have an altercation'.
Very telling that you consider it "bullshit".

Something tells me the language used by the lady passenger was rather less polite than she claimed...

I don't think Barnaby will be cutting up many more cyclists and mouthing off after!

Barnaby didnt mouth off at all. He was the learner driver. It was his partner.
If everyone assaulted every learner driver that does something daft near them, they'd all be nervous wrecks!

I was saying he wouldn't do it in the future. If she had put her hand up and apologised for the bad driving, would she have got the same result?.

Zactly. "Asked him to be more considerate" my foot.

Well done. You remember cat good.
Proof if proof were needed that being identifiable makes these lunatic cyclists think twice before committing a crime.

No it couldn't. If someone does something really dangerous, report them. Don't smash their fucking window because then you're the dick doing something deliberately dangerous.
Also, banging on the car roof is a dumb idea too. If that happened to me I'd probably jump out of my skin, not a great idea when someone's driving.

In this scenario you'd be staring this cyclist in the eyes while calling him an inconsiderate fucking cunt and cutting him up. Not driving.

cyclists must not be criticisedIf a car driver smashed another car's window over a baby and then fled the scene, it probably would be. That's the story here, not 'driver and cyclist have an altercation'.

He's a learner! We don't even know if what he did was that dangerous (perhaps the cyclist was trying to squeeze through an unreasonable space). We do know that the cyclist involved is prone to massive overreaction.
No idea. The guy had already hit her car, showing himself to have a tendency towards violence. Not the best way to extract a reasonable apology.

The biggest argument I'd have against it, particularly in the current political climate, is that the government would start off by insisting it had to be at no cost to the taxpaper, and that registration fees would have to cover the cost of implementing it. Then they'd put in some baroque farrago of a system to do this, operated by Crapita, with a £150 annual fee, or some similar nonsense.
It might work (though probably not if it were that expensive) for those who use bikes a lot or as an alternative to car travel, where there might actually be a cost justification, but for all those people for whom cycling was a leisure interest, they'd be forced to start deciding whether the half a dozen weekends when they go out on their bikes was really worth the annual cost.

Absolutely.
Banging on cars is never a good idea. Not least because you probably don't know who's inside and there are plenty of headcase drivers who'll take things to the next level. So if you're not built like Joustmaster, just don't. Fortunately it's usually not possible for a car driver to whack another's vehicle with a hand or foot in passing. If it were I reckon there'd be frequent road rage killings. It immediately ups the anti from having a shouting match or exchanging hand gestures, to the physical. Very fucking dangerous.
In this case, the cowardly cyclist had probably spotted that the car contained a soft-looking young couple with a baby so felt safe to use the D-lock on them:

All this goes to demonstrate is that steering wheel locks, which have fallen out of fashion, could do with a come back. Lets see some skinny twat wearing clothes in which his penis and testicles are visible be so lairy with one of these in his pus:

Can we put number plates on pedestrians too, and make insurance compulsory? One made me crash and break my arm once.
