Road Rager in a BMW wanted for Attacking Bicyclists:
With many digesters living in the local area, might you know of this car
or driver?
This person is wanted by the police for questioning. Do you know of
them or their car?
Here is the account:
" another series of vechicular harassments occured. This time on
Saturday, April 5, at around 11 AM on Old La Honda.
A late model BMW, probably a 3-Series model, silver or light gray,
roared up the hill faster than any car I've ever seen on that road,
horn blaring constantly, and swerving around and in front of riders. Many other riders said also that water balloons were thrown.
The driver appeared to be a young Caucasian woman. Another rider
believed the license plate to be 4MAW504."

Please direct all leads to the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office
Anonymous Witness Program (800) 547-2700. Also email me privately and I will forward the info to the local bicycle groups who persue charges against vehicular assualts agaist bikers.
As posted before, the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office has persued prosecution against drivers road raging against bicyclists. Recently, a driver accepted a plea bargain of a misdemeanor level traffic offense, rather than face prosecution for more serious non-motor vehicle charges. This was based on witnesses coming forward regarding vehicular agression against many bicyclists last summer who were climbing West Alpine Road, same road the recent GGC rallye descended.
thank you,
