the driver should have stopped, i mean what the hell, if you see someone on a bike or not in the road you let them pass/cross or whatever, not hit them. he was probably pissed cause he dropped his coffee or because everyone saw him do it
this has some flaws in it from what i know, i ride my bike every where, sidewalks, highways, interstates, roads, citys, towns... you can ride on the side walk as long as you are not disturbing pedestrian traffic, and if you are on a bike ,on a paved road, all the rules of driving a car apply to you. you just have to be very careful because cars dont see riders as easily as cars or motor bikes... but as far a settlement in concerned.. i really dont think you would get much, if you not badly hurt and you did comply to the rules of the road a judge would probabily say "GTFO my court and stop wasting my time and taxpayers money"
sorry bro
