Range Rovers - big, loud, easily noticed...
I failed to notice it (SMIDSY!!!), pulled out of a t-junction in front of it, resultant closing speed was probably 25-40mph. My right leg and beloved Bob Jackson took thhe initial impact, before I exacted my revenge by cracking their windscreen with my head.
It wasn't entirely bad planning on my part though - I regained consciousness to discover I'd performed this spectacular wipeout in front of a student nurse and an occupational therapist.
