Similar happened to me, woman stepped out between two buses in traffic about a meter in front of me, there was no way I could've stopped but panic braked and found myself on the floor with concussion. Didn't get her name as the bike was undamaged.... regret that now, I later had a seizure (as a result of concussion) which meant I had to surrender my licence for a year, I worked for a carclub at the time and therefore ended up sacrificing a lot of work until they could find me another position. It put me in a bad place financially and for that, despite not liking 'litigation culture' on the whole, I would've taken the idiot to court.
