Was in an accident last night at around 7pm. Heading southbound on A24 and had just passed Clapham South tube. A car pulled out in front of me from a side street, Cathles Street,on my left to turn towards Clapham. Going at around 15mph and yelled out 'Stop' to no avail. Collided with the driver's side, flew over the bonnet and landed in the middle of the road, taking full brunt on my shoulder. Thankfully Paramedics on the scene quickly and treated swiftly at St George's, but X Rays show it's a broken collarbone. Driver looked shocked and admitted he hadn't seen me. He did wait for the police, who got details while I was at hospital. A young witness confirmed he hadn't seen me and gave me his details on a bit of paper, but annoyingly I've lost the scrap of paper. I was in a state, so didn't get his name! Member of British Cycling so have left message to ask for advice. Shoulder very painful now and in sling - just hope I make full recovery!
