so a truck driver opening the rear door of his truck didn't look before he opened it and clipped me with it as i rode past.
Some superficial damage to my left shifter and a huge bruise / graze up my forearm. I took his details and a guy behind me offered to be a witness, got the delivery company details and truck registration.
I eventually rode off, just before i left he asked me how much it was going to cost to repair my shifter i said i didn't know but i was more concerned about my arm what with riding the 100 on sunday.
He said he would rather sort it out personally as he'd only worked there a week and didn't want to lose his job (could be BS)
Not really sure what to do, currently sat at work icing my arm
