Man that sucks, hope you heal up ok. Good plan to report, driving off after something like that is unimaginable!
Ratty-
Thanks man. Reported at the police station so we will see what happens with it, number plate and witness seems pretty foolproof but I wonder how much effort is actually put into this kind of thing.
Never understand how people can just drive off, if I had gone over (was a miricale I stayed up tbh) it would have been a much worse crash.

Had my first proper crash since starting commuting 6 months ago. Was coming down a bus lane in streatham (before 7 so cars not allowed in it).
Guy in corsa turns and indicates at same time into bus lane to try and go down the inside of traffic.
I veer to the left hit the rear left of his car hard, then hit the kerb bounce about a bit and just manage to keep the bike upright.
He drives straight off, luckily nice cyclist behind me sees the whole thing. Have the guys reg and a witness, no damage to me or the bike I think (maybe a bruised arm). Currently looking into how I report this heinous crime!
