Dad pulled over onto hard shoulder after witnessing an accident to help a few years ago, Van driver drove past/round him and onto the hard shoulder as he also witnessed......

then decided to reverse straight back over my dad with him still on his bike... totally crushed the bike and didn't do my dad's leg too much good either... the guy had actually driven round my dad to pull up...

Can't believe some people...

inc my sister who decided to open the garage and get her car out when we were living back at parents, had to squeeze past my bike to get to the car, and then promptly reversed over the bike.... Grrrrrrr

I was not a happy bunny

Yeah... I'm not saying they'll be damaged- it's not even particularily likely- but it could well be worth checking.
