Damn bicyclists, always pushing playing cards on people and setting up elaborate impromptu chains of comedy.

And the bicyclist rode merrily on his way. It’d make a good bit in a Fawlty Towers episode. John Cleese (Basil Fawlty) could have been the irate Toyota driver who ends up getting a ticket for illegal parking.

Where I live they’d have arrested the bicyclist on principle.
They definitely would not have arrested the guy who assaulted him, and they might or might not have arrested the carjacker. But they’d have gotten the cyclist for sure.
