I was only just given notification by DC Hughes of the verdict.
I'm unaware of why the jury reached this decision but its a travesty, Meakin is a lucky guy, I feel so sorry for the victim to have waited almost a year to see his attacker eventually go unpunished. I'm also so worried for other cyclists out there who may not be so nimble as to leap from a bike being crushed by a white van lunatic, in this case the victim narrowly escaped horrendous injury.
