Hope yr healing up, not sure on the current law but 20 years ago while driving a motorbike this was a common argument by opposing insurance companies to try and pay out less especially against motorcyclist claiming a 50% blame, but in this case I think the cops are fools and someone turning right has to admit they either saw you and misjudged or they didn't see you which either way leaves them at fault, your position didn't change until contact was made, I would never contact the driver as this can be used against you if they have a smart solicitor, get legal advice and pursue, good luck and don't give up , cheers k

I now live near Lea Bridge Road and even with the cyclelane in place I have seen numerous left-hooks and right hand turns that easily could have been fatal. It is good that a lot of the roads between Orient Way and Markhouse have been blocked to motorised traffic at their LBR end.
