Here?s a memo to drivers who hate cyclists: If you hit one, don?t Tweet about it.
That?s just what Brit Emma Way apparently did. On Sunday, she Tweeted: ?Definitely knocked a cyclist off his bike earlier ? I have right of way he doesn?t even pay road tax #bloodycyclists.? (She has since deleted her account, but here?s a screenshot of the Tweet.)
The post quickly spread around the Internet, and caught the attention of Norwich police, who Tweeted saying she should contact authorities.
The Guardian newspaper reported that the cyclist involved turned out to be Tom Hockley, who responded to Way?s tweet by writing on her Facebook page: ?Oh hi! That was me you hit and FYI, you didn?t knock me off, I?m too hard to be hurt by a pissy micra or whatever it was you were driving.?
Way apologized in a subsequent interview with ITV.
?It was a spur-of-the-moment, stupid Tweet,? she said, adding: ?If I knew that he was hurt I would never have driven off. ? I don?t want any cyclist to think I have hatred against them, because I?m a cyclist myself.?
Way said she has been suspended from her job as a trainee solicitor. Her lawyer said police are still investigating the incident.
