That must've been awful to watch as a parent, knowing you couldn't do anything to stop it. I'm so glad she will be ok.

I just hope the driver learned something from the experience and feels bad about it, rather than feeling defensive and "in the right."

(And the helmet thing - I used to be pretty lazy about it for slow casual dirt path rides. Now I have a hard time not lecturing every cyclist I see without one, regardless of where or what they're riding!)
