Was the person taking that picture driving at the time? Isn't operating a phone while operating a vehicle against the law too?

Not going to start a poo fight here, but where will this thread end?

A lot of wrongs on both sides trying to justify a right from what I can see.

A little patience and respect and none of these problems would exist and maybe in some locations a cyclist could even go helmet free like in the old days and like they currently do in some places overseas.
