what a funking nightmare, hope your ok and get your moneys worth out of the council...

Sadly its common practice in the council (or the one I worked for) to go out in unroadworthy cars/vans... You moan they do nothing, you moan again they do nothing, so you moan once more and are shown the door...

I had many scary moments in council cars, specially the astra can they had that had NO BRAKES!!! the quote I was given when I came back in after about 600 yds, was;

'f*ck it mate, if you wanna stop use the gearbox and the handbrake if you must, stop being a pussy get out there, and do some work'

here's hoping your come up trumps,

Stuarty,

Sorry to hear about accident, hope its all going to get fixed (u and bike)

I'm a driving instructor and get really *&^%ed off when folk are running on 2 out of three brake lights or in the case of vans drivers and older cars 1. People often overlook the fact that lights are a simple thing to check but so important, Its a very good thing that you were keeping the correct distance.

As mentioned before I think you should try and take these guys to the cleaners, as for the driver who KNEW the lights were out......bring back hanging
