Forum Rider Down and/or notification of minor incidents

Hello

A few weeks ago I had an accident. Into the side/back of a car on E+C, he braked suddenly. Bike frame trashed, clavicle broken. I really don't remember it much, helmet saved me but was quite dazed. It may well have been my fault but I couldn't say either way for sure.

Just got a phone call, the driver asking "what are we going to do about it". Apparently I broke his rear headlight. I don't have car insurance on my bike funnily enough so I just said "I'm not going to pay for your light, or anything do with your car" and hung up.

Has he got any legal recourse? Because I'm minded to just ignore him.

After I collided with him I went over his roof and into the side of a black cab, denting the door, haven't heard from him though....
His legal recourse is to take you to court and sue you for the cost of any damage to his vehicle.

He might even report you to the police for careless cycling.

Finally, he could call you a prick for hanging up on him.
