Dramatic scenes: In Los Angeles, a Hyundai rammed a man off his bike - and just kept driving.

The police are searching with high pressure.

Los Angeles – Driving away after a parking bump is not only cheeky, but also a punishable offence.

The accident driver may later try to use the excuse of not noticing the impact.

It is questionable whether one can get away with it.

In a case that has just taken place in Los Angeles, the driver of a Hyundai certainly cannot use that as an excuse.

As can be seen in a video (below), the vehicle rams a man off his bike - and then simply roars away.

The police are now using the video to find the driver who had the accident – ​​and have also offered a reward, as reported by 24auto.de.

Life-threatening action: Auto-Rambo rams cyclists - and flees

The video released by the police shows frightening images.

The clip, apparently captured by another vehicle's dashcam, shows a bicyclist traveling south on Glendale Boulevard.

Suddenly a silver Hyundai Elantra rushes up from behind and rams him.

The cyclist falls violently to the ground and rolls over – shortly afterwards he jumps up and runs towards the side of the road.

The man is very lucky that the Hyundai does not run over him - or that another car does not run over him during his "escape".

His bike, on the other hand, is run over by the Elantra.

The cyclist suffered minor injuries in the crash, according to Los Angeles police.

The bike, on the other hand, is now scrap.
