THOMMA55 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 (edited) on the way to college i was just crossing the road on my pushbike... look left look right... no cars in sight , so i crossed the road and suddenly i got hit by a alfa romeo , caught my rear wheel, i slid along the road , not really got bad injuries but got a really sore nose for some reason , thought it was broken at first but its not , its also gave me 2 black eyes and a swollen lip , smal cut on my forhead , and a grazed arm ..as for the bike it is totally destroyed , was my pride and joy , not sure how fast the alfa was going but im sure i didnt see it when i looked over the road , also had my mp3 on so i couldnt hear anythin Edited November 9, 2007 by E5CORT-0WN3R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

el_hefe Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 no i havent reported it to police , do you think i should because i dont reckon they will do anythingIn this day and age of no win no fee claims etc... if you had informed the police you prob would of got a nice payout of a few grand for personal injuries and cost of you bike etc.... oh and you could also go to a psycologist as claim to now have a phobia of bikes, possibly another couple of grand to be had there too lol.... as long as you leave out the mp3 player bit lol!!
