It was obvious the driver was not paying attention to driving.
After she hit the bicyclist she turned left sharply and almost rolled her vehicle, hit the curb blew out the front left tire on her SUV and ended up on the medium and almost went into oncoming traffic that was going south.
This guy was lucky not to be killed!!!!!

How do you know it wasn't the bicyclist "not paying attention" and cut off the car. Sometimes "looks" can be deceiving. It wouldn't be the first bike rider to be the cause an accident. I doubt the first responder (that you stopped and talked to?) was a witness. Point is, unless one reads the accident report no one knows. Can't imagine anyone saying to a cop "I wasn't paying attention because I was busy texting and this bike guy just suddenly was there." Please give me a ticket because I'm dumb." Of course that is possible around here.
