It is in there already.
But when you've been hit... checking that thread isn't something that crossed my mind.
My first reaction was... get back on the bike and ride home.
My second reaction was... why are these people running over and trying to calm me down and stopping me from trying to get on the bike?
That's when I looked at myself, saw all of the blood, the ever-swelling calf muscle that was huge and dark purple in moments.
An ambulance was the only thing on my mind. I made the call myself, but was feeling faint and sick by the end of the call.
My opinion: the 999 operator heard the circumstances, and should've called the police too because I was clearly in no fit state.

Ah, apologies. Not a criticism at all. I hope it did come across as such.
Like you, I assumed the operator would be obliged to call the police too (stealth edit - oops).

When I got car doored I called 999 and asked for the Police. It was the operator who suggested she despatch an ambulance too. Which was good of her, as I needed one.

Bit late here. But maybe this is something to add to the "What to do in case of an accident" thread? => ask for police first when calling 999?
Thoughts with you @Velocio
