Cyclist takes out cyclist
Guess what? He rode away leaving her unconscious on a cycle path.
Anne Tuffney, a mother of two, broke her collar bone in the crash that happened when the other cyclist clipped her front wheel as he overtook at speed. He rode on without stopping and police are appealing for witnesses to the accident on the Bristol to Bath Railway Path on July 19. http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/Hit-run...ail/story.html http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/public...ard-2013_07_30 |

I didn't like what I saw, so I'll trust my first instinct and not read the article. Have you nothing better, something which might interest me? |

Fortunately I was wearing a helmet. I was taken by ambulance to Frenchay Hospital, where they stated I had a broken collar bone and was lucky that the bone had not pierced the skin." =====/Quote===== Did the helmet prevent the collar bone from piercing the skin? If not, why is it fortunate that the unfortunate lady was wearing the helmet. I cannot glean the answer from the article. For the record, I have nothing but contempt for the cowardly cyclist who fled the scene. |

I wonder if she thought it was fortunate because she had banged her head - and assumed that sensible people would understand that? (I bet there are many happy parents at John Ball Primary School) |

Try Google, there's hundreds. |

It would be really nice to think that the **** would get caught and punished, ABH/GBH should cover it nicely. |

The way she describes it sounds like she passed out - maybe fainted briefly from pain/shock? |
