6 foot tall scumbag cyclist hospitalises OAP

Either you don't or are pretending not to. Being civilly liable for loss, injury or damage is not a criminal sanction. As to civil liability, would it be different if a drunk cyclist ran into you on a footway and broke your spine (and happened to be insured against third-party risks)? If it would be different, what is the purpose of cycling insurance against third-party risks? |

It describes a crash and the rider returning to assault the OAP. There is no suggestion the bicycle was used in the assault, ie, the cyclist had turned into a pedestrian. No-one can insure themselves against criminal sanctions. Who envisaged or suggested that it is possible? Ah, the messsage has finally sunk in but you don't want to admit it. |

Just for clarity's sake: civil liability (which is what is insured against) is not the same thing as criminal liability or the sanctions which might be applied because of it. You can't insure against the imposition of judicial punishment for an offence and it would be an offence, at least potentially, for a non-driver or non-cyclist to cause damage or injury whilst "on foot". Why you ever raised that as an issue ("You're not explaining how it works outside the car") is a mystery. |
