*My workmate arrived today on his 2 week old Condor Cross bike. Buckled front wheel and snapped fork. Some bird in a Jag had done a U-turn in front of him without looking. He's got all her details and will follow it up.*

 Snapped the fork? How did that happen? Nasty. She pulled a U and then what?

The way he explained it, she didn't see him and did a u-turn, he plowed into her front wheel and went over the bonnet whereas the bike was on the ground and she rolled over it before stopping. It was her driving over the wheel/fork that caused the snappage, not him hitting the car.
