Hi, I wonder if someone can offer me some advice...my son was recently hit by a car while riding. Very minor injuries thankfully but his beautiful old steel Raleigh is a write-off. The driver was very open at first but has gradually reduced what she seems to think she ought to offer. She is now saying she is only prepared to buy a similar bike off eBay to replace the dead one. My question is - what are my son’s rights here - and what do people think is reasonable? Hope you can help. W
