If that's not what you meant to say, that's on you. If it's what you meant to say, if I am the injured cyclist, I wouldn't want you "advocating" for me under those circumstances.
No one is saying leave the guy unattended if there's no emt or police on the scene. Why would you think anyone would say that?
If possible, I would try to find out. If there was an emergency contact I could call, for the cyclist. I would not try to interfere with what EMS/Police are doing.

Have you read the thread, including and especially the original post?
Yes I have.
