Exactly one of my points.
Beyond all legally relevant questions (had he right to be riding on that lane giving that the rest of traffic had just stopped?), how could the driver see the cyclist anyway? That's not who has right to pass, that's physics. That's too fast for a bike, for the situation, for any vehicle to see the bike coming. -Too fast- any other legal right he might have had. If law forbids him to do that, he is an idiot, if the law allows him, he's a stupid because he doesn't care for his own safety and the law is very badly designed.
