    The cyclist had bruising and fractures to his two cervical discs in his neck - off work for 3 weeks.
    The car had a dodgy numberplate so not quite bang to rights.

    The exact same thing happened to me yesterday only not quite so dramatic - I managed to grab the brake as I saw the car come across me and it was a 4x4 so I went mostly into it rather than as far as the windscreen/

    Unbelievable that drivers aren't looking at what's in the lane coming at them when turning right.

    About a month ago this could have happened to me when commuting home from work - if I didnt have disc brakes on my commuter, I seriously suspect it would have done...
