Is rubbish
Was cycling to work today along the main road and some bint in an 08 plate merc drove into the side of me coming out of a side road without even looking
Ended up sitting on the bonnet with a WTF are you doing facial expression on
I am fine except a bruised elbow not that she was bothered, just worried about what her husband is going to say about the scratch on the splitter from my bike
Apparently she seems under the impression that I will help pay for it However I may suddenly develop whip lash if that is the case

If shes trys to get money out of me its going to be an epic fail especially as I have a suspicion she was on the phone at the time.
Think its all an empty threat anyway as I havent heard from her or "husband"

Buckled front wheel but I have disk brakes so could get it home. Plus I used to build wheels so I have fixed it now

Nice one mate!
Too many people would claim whiplash etc in this situation just to scrounge cash out of it. Which puts all our insurance up!

Probably a heat of the moment thing where she just went off on one to avoid admiting been in the wrong.
I am sure I would have heard from her by now if she was serious
