"While New Jersey, California, Illinois and other states have limited the use of bail, New York is one of the few states to abolish bail for many crimes without also giving state judges the discretion to consider whether a person poses a threat to public safety in deciding whether to hold them."

From my understanding, the bicyclist is still in intensive care from being intentionally hit by the driver... So I am sure that the driver was scared, but the driver was also guilty of assault with a deadly weapon, and maybe attempted murder.

That's not what the articles cited here say. In fact, the bicyclists involved are wanted for the felonies they committed according to multiple articles on this.

Are they colorblind? Did they think it was a taxi or uber?
So the driver was driving down the street, saw some bicyclists and thought, "they might be wanted for 'felonies'". He then honked his horn, and rammed the bicyclists...
This is more evidence all Republicans should lose their drivers licenses.

That's not how the articles read. The driver was at a light and the bicyclists came up from behind him. Some grabbed the vehicle to be pulled along by it as it started to move. The driver suddenly had to stop or slow and one of the riders crashed alongside the vehicle splitting their lip open. The rest of the bicyclists then viciously attacked the non-moving vehicle relentlessly.
Oh, what makes you think the driver was a "Republican?"

This particular driver was a dimocrat. Not sure what his has to do with Republican drivers.
Not possible. This happened in NYC.

Hmm, which do I hate more–bicycles or Beamers?
I'd say you can like both. Trying to use one to power the other is rather stupid, though.
Blue city for you. Complete lawlessness thanks to defund police and bail reform.

well, since you cannot read, you are right, you are an idiot, too. from the article YOU POSTED, STUPID...
New York City officials on Tuesday agreed to a grim coronavirus-era budget that will sharply curtail municipal services, impose a hiring freeze and, in a move meant to placate calls to defund the police, shift roughly $1 billion from the Police Department.
The $88.1 billion budget reflected the economic shutdown that followed the outbreak, causing a $9 billion revenue shortfall that forced the city to make drastic across-the-board spending cuts.
Sure enough, the details seemed to please no one, and the budget passed the City Council early Wednesday with more noes than usual, in a 32-to-17 vote.
The city decided to cancel the planned hiring of roughly 1,160 officers, and to shift monitoring of illegal vending, homeless people on the streets and school safety away from the police.
As it now stands, Mr. de Blasio may have agreed to eliminate the incoming July class of officers, but another officer class is still poised to start training in October. The rest of the city’s work force, including teachers — but excepting those in health and safety roles such as firefighters and paramedics — will remain in a hiring freeze for the next year.
“If we have a hiring freeze for every single city agency, that should include the N.Y.P.D.,” Jumaane Williams, the city’s public advocate, said during an appearance Tuesday morning.
