Hello,
This is my first post. I've been following this forum for some time now, but this is my very first post.
In reply to http://www.londonfgss.com/thread32958.html.
I had an accident in June 2007. I was travelling close to the kerb and as I approach a junction a car coming in the opposite direction turns right illegally and knocks me of my bike fracturing my left shoulder and other minor bruises. I got all the details from the driver, a fellow cyclist who saw the incident offered to be a witness, the police and an amubalce were called. The police was very helpful. I got £6589 compensation. Is a lot of money, but I still suffer from pain on my injured shoulder on cold days and I've got about 90% range on it.
That's my story. If anyone needs it, I hope not, I can give the details of the solicitors that took my case on a no win no fee basis. Ah,it took almost 13 month to get the payment.
Cheers
