Well yesterday on my way to the university to write an exam, a van turned across my cycle path while I had the green light.
I managed to avoid crashing into the van, by crashing into the ground. The van indifferently drove on.
Somehow I managed to get up cursing, wave at the driver who continued to ignore/not see me, and then whip my cellphone out to write down the numberplate.
I picked up my bicycle, continued to the university, wrote my exam with a bleeding knee and ruined pants, then went to the hospital to get myself checked. Afterwards on to the police and report the event.
Sadly didn't manage to get any witnesses, and theres no CCTV here.
Let's see where this one goes.
