2014-01-06 - Rider Down, Russel Square

She was heading down Montague Pl to Russell Sq, and turned right, as cycles are allow to. The coach came from behind, did an illegal right turn and hit her rear wheel. The coach's rear wheel went over her left foot, crushed it and also broke both the bones in her lower leg as the weight of the coach snapped her leg over the bike frame.
...
Out of 28 bones in the foot, 26 are crushed and she will never run again (she was training for a half marathon in March) and might not be able to wear heels.

The driver was charged at the scene with dangerous driving and a traffic offence. The police have 4 witnesses willing to testify that he was in the wrong. Fingers crossed the courts actually do something.

Just re-reading this. You could not get a clearer case of the driver being in the wrong and causing serious injury to a cyclist. He pleads guilty and gets 5 points and a fine. Absolutely shocking!
