Re: 1. Knee down...
were you on the roundabout already then and he just pulled out/into you?
Doesnt matter about you been in the wrong lane then surely, if you were on the RO then its your Right of Way. He pulled out on you, he didnt know you were in the wrong lane he just didnt see you. Therefore he caused the accident or does it not work that way? |

As I said, it's his responsibility to check it is safe to change lanes: it was perfectly legitimate for there to be a vehicle in my lane heading for my exit. The problem is that I got into that position through not following the rules: he could argue that he didn't expect me to be there. |
Re: 1. Knee down...
ah rite i see, always makes me nervious when there is a car in that position and im taking the right lane of a 2 lane exit.
did he maintain a right hand indicator, and did you indicate left to show your intention to leave the RO? |
Re: 1. Knee down...
I did something very similar in a car ten years or so ago.
Claim was settled 50/50. |

Re: 1. Knee down...
My insurers have written the bike off. Shopping time. I'm looking longingly at the first batch (2002-ish) of 636 ZX-6Rs... so I'll see if I can sort out a test ride this week.
