I'd like to add that what he did could be an attempt at vehicular manslaughter. Also, instead of punching (to avoid assault charges) spitting normally does the trick just as well, if not better.
Gotta be careful about spitting too, most states have changed laws to felony assualt for that due to aids and stuff. Don't know how it is there but in Oregon its assault and if you have aids, you can be charged with attempted homicide!

If not that, certainly assault with a deadly weapon or reckless endangerment...if he changes his mind, I will swear out a warrant.

You can't be arrested for having a speech impediment. =)
VA is a commonwealth so pressing charges is probably the luxury of the county attourney (not the guy you punched). you want to be able to say things like "yeah i really screwed up. i feel horrible about it so i've been seeing this shrink about my anger... "
Actually, they guy has the option of pressing charges anytime during the statue of limitations. All he has to do is get your personal information from the case number on file with the police, go before a magistrate, and swear out a warrant. The bare minimum is 12 months for Assault and Battery. However, if you draw blood, a warrant can be issued for malicious wounding, which is a felony and has no statute of limitations......Then of course on top of the criminal charges, he can always sue you for damages in civil court.
I can't believe people suggesting reckless driving, malicious wounding and so on. It was none of that. It was a simple accident, that caused no damage.There's no proof of anything else even if he bumpedthe bike twice. I'd make an educated guess that he probably didn't have his foot down on the brake hard enough and wasn'tpaying attention.The other driver didn't deserve to be punched in the mouth, regardless of where he is from.
