Video: Police trying to trace driver who hit Leicester cyclist and drove away

Don't expect much assistance from the van driver in helping identifying the vehicle 

Unbelievable! By the way the silver 'CVN' van anchors up prior to the collision, I'd say that the Clio has stopped and flashed the bus out. As prev suggested, initially the bus driver doesn't see the cyclist. BUT THEN... the Clio driver gets a sudden rush of blood to the head and deliberately cleans up the cyclist. Bizarre and terrible. At the same time.

My first thought was kudos to the bus driver who seemed to be aware of the cyclist almost under the bus wheels and stopped very quickly. But looking at the video again I'm not sure why the bus driver is pulling out into passing traffic from the bay on the left side of the road. Maybe it was this manoeuvre that forced the bicycle into what the car driver considered to be their space and which then led to what looks like a very deliberate swerve into and attack on the cyclist.

The bus should have cctv and cams on board shouldn't it?

Looks like a Black Clio 2005-12 model

I reckon we're looking at at least a £60 fine here (if found guilty, obvs)

That driver is a miserable excuse for a human being.

It was just some young girl driving who has "since been suffering from “survivor’s guilt” and had frequent nightmares" so they will get off.

Surely CVN property developers would be the obvious place to start.
The way the Clio stopped and allowed the cyclist to pass, prior to driving in to them, shows it was clearly premeditated and regardless of what may or may not have happened previously was an attempt to cause harm or worst.
