<p>Yeah CLP, I've heard police explain their frustration/disappointment that there's an expectation on them which is reasonable to go after issues like this pretty hard as they serve and protect, but then various manifestations of apathy or indifference and even just non-cooperation with them doing their job to get the bad guys seems incongruous with the expectations of them.</p>

<p>Meanwhile from the article, it always worries me when someone won't do the police report thing. I appreciate that people have their personal reasons, but after a 911 call and even police arriving on the scene, it is the right thing to do, and helps with prosecution and other actions to reduce the odds that this happens to another cyclist.</p>
