"Run over" implies wheels over the body. The cart clipped the bike causing him to lose balance and fall. Should she stop? Of course! Was she careless? Yes!
Felony hit and run with injuries? Overblown, in my opinion. Maybe some kind of misdemeanor and an apology to the biker. I am betting she did not realize the biker fell.
