Passed too close leading to collision? He passed like. Three inches away from the bicycles, and one of the bicycles ended up hitting his car. Probably because when a big ass car passes that close you get sucked into it.
Point is, it wasn't a bowling pins type situation where you could clearly call it attempted murder, but he definitely fucked up.
A collision is almost never bowling pin situation, and if he came from behind and the cyclist got hit it doesnt matter if it was from suction force or pixies pushing the bike, the vehicle from behind is responsible for a collision and is not a "passing". At least here in sweden. I tried to be a bit funny and reinforce the title of the post :)
A driver colliding with another car from behind is generally always at fault no matter what in the US, but this fine specimen didn't collide with another auto, it was a cyclist.
