That sounds like his fault rather than anyone else's - and it's his OWN version. QUOTE: Mr Gilligan went to “politely” remonstrate with the driver ENDQUOTE What? He collides with another vehicle due to his own failings and he intends to "remonstrate" with the person in the (no doubt) damaged stationary vehicle who was not at fault? What planet is this "Bishopsgate" place on? QUOTE: “He looked rather threatening so I thought I should cycle off... ENDQUOTE ....thereby leaving the scene of the incident and denying the owner of the damaged vehicle any chance of recovering the cost of repairs. Nice man. |

It is not a requirement to stop at the scene (I am surprised you didn't know). If you were injured in a crash you're welcome to hang around for the possibility of getting a fist in your face on top of it all. After such a public announcement, the driver, if he believes himself to be innocent, only has to turn up at a police station and ask for Andrew Gilligan. QUOTE: A spokeswoman for City Police said: “We can confirm a 27-year old man from Camden was arrested..." ENDQUOTE So they appear to know something about the event. I wonder which one was first to get to a police station. |

Nugent fails comprehension. It's rather a habit you have. As long as the vehicle doing the crashing is a bike and the one being crashed into is a car, in any othr case case it's the other way round. You said it. Not mant people will agree with you. |
