Has anyone been hit by a car and have it been completely your fault?
Okay... So it wasn't completely my fault...
I was going full pelt down a road, junction coming up, me having right of way. zebra crossing had just cleared in front of me so I didn't slow down. I was in a rush. White car pulled out from the left, turning left... flipped over the corner of the bonnet, managing to send my bike flying in the air only to have it come down on top of me.
Seat introduced to eye.
The woman was actually quite nice about it, I was going too fast and she didn't look... She also offered up her details without me even asking which was pretty cool.
Welsh people are nice.
