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.
You're kidding right?...

He has most likely done this before, on meek sheep cagers who just moved on when he pushed. Maby he will learn his leson and not do this to someone else. Or maby he wont and the next person will put a slug in his brain pan problem solved.

No. You know what? It was no simple accident. It was deliberate. Yes, I drew blood and yes, I was advised that it was a felony assault and battery if I were charged and yes, he can still swear out a warrant anytime he wants, and yes if he does then I will reciprocate!

lmao... Yeah... I'm sure that he justdidn't notice hitting the bike the first time... And then "accidentally" hit it again... Are you serious?

If what you are suggesting is really the case (which is ridiculous) then he shouldn't be allowed on the road at all... Anyone that inattentive would clearly bea danger to society

If you were to seek a cross warrant, how do you figure you are gonna prove "intent" and that it was not an accident? I've been a LEO in Va for 16+ years. In my experience, the guy that gets the warrant second, usually loses. I guess the judges view it as retailation.

What puzzles me is if it was intentional, what wasthe reason was for the troopers not charging him? Usually, Va. State Troopers take a hard stance against traffic offenses. Sure, they didn't witness it, and with no damage, I doubt if they would charge him then and there. However, they could get a warrant and then subpoena you as a witness.
