I think technically speaking it may have been Juan Antonio Flecha, who got hit by a French TV car that swerved right into him and knocked him for six. Hoogerland was sent flying when Flecha and bike cannoned into him and wound up getting thrown into a barbed wire fence.

Poor old Flecha made it to the end, but he wasn't talking to the press and Dave Brailsford of Sky was clearly not a happy bunny...

It was a seriously inept piece of driving, but Hoogerland just seemed glad that he and Flecha were still alive. If he'd been sent into the fencepost, it might have been a different matter...
