Default Accident update

The very nice (as in nice looking, even my mum said he was cute-pity hes married) traffic officer came to see me tonight to take my statement etc....


Im smiling......




Shes admitted FULL blame and the 3 witness's agree i was noooo way at fault/shes to blame-im actually close to tears, just pure relief!!

He asked if I wanted to prosecute her...and ive said NO, it was a accident, think shes learnt a hard enough lesson plus i dont want this dragging out further and longer than it has to be, although ive said i dont want to take it further he said its up to the accident investigation etc if they want to due her for driving with undue care and attention because im injured!

I'll find out next week if sv is to be written off or not-im suprised if shes not!
if she is, well then the hunts on for a new bike!!

Glad to hear it! At least there will be no issues with her insurer. If there are, just put them in contact with the Traffic lad.
He may put her on a Driver Improvement Scheme as an alternative to prosecution. Again, a good thing 'cos education is often better than the big stick approach.
Hope you heal fast and well, certainly, you look well enough in your avatar!

What a relief for you.... but then if she hit you from behind then she would be to blame anyway. I would be claiming for my injuries too .

Good luck with it!

I knew i wasnt to blame, but was dreading her saying i suddenly stopped etc...just glad shes gone "yes i was at fault" BIG BIG relief all round here, i know its gonna take ages for payment for injuried but HOPEFULLY bike claim wont take so long now!

Bit of a smile moment: traffic officer did look very sheepish when he admitted that he asked how HE was when he turned up on the scene only to be swiftly told that i was a HER lol
