Glad no one was hurt! Driver was probably confused and then embarassed. This is the kinda story that ought to prompt the installation of bollards at entrances. We cannot wait for an injury or death to install them.
The dutch solved this by colouring the bike lane orange. Yes occasionally we add bollards but the entrances to 2 lanes often end/start in protected intersections
Are there going to be any resources put towards prosecuting this driver? Of course not.
Honestly, a lifetime ban from driving would be the best option short of life in prison for reckless endangerment. The guy should have slashed her tires.

Needs to be criminally prosecuted with confiscation of driving licence + possibly car

Police and courts are a poor substitute for better infrastructure.
