What about the witnesses?

if you can point me at an impartial one or a statement from the police
I'd consider that as evidence. Pressure groups are not impartial and
are getting a benefit from this publicity they are whipping up.


then I condemn it and hope that the
police investigate and, if appropriate, prosecute (it would appear
that the witnesses got the reg number).

Not much more to say, really, is there? And no relevance to transport
whatsoever ...

Use of a car to knock someone down is not related to transport?

nope; its like using a kitchen knife to kill someone isn't related to
cooking.
the car is being used as a weapon not a mode of transport; you want
alt.carsasweapons

Why am I not surprised that posters here are trying to excuse the
actions of the driver.

what with me saying if he has used the car this way I'd condemn him;
bit like Brian. Both of us drivers yet siding with you if thats what
the facts prove?

Why is it when someone looks at both sides of an issue you warp what
they say?

Had it been the other way around, ARA using GBH
on a driver, we would never hear the end of it here.

that driver could be an ARA; many circus staff like animals after
all. Why make assumptions?

Who knows what the background of the driver; the person who was run
over; or the cameraperson where? Not me, I just got to see a couple
of seconds of video that didn't show the whole story.

The last time we saw footage like this it was some careless protester
to busy taking photos to realise she was backing into (slowly) moving
traffic. That somehow became "motorist terrorists runs over
protester" when you posted it. Rather than careless pedestrian gets
bumped by careless driver; people should pay more attention when using
the road.
