mtbel – Council have admitted liability, that evening the damage in the road was repaired. It took an accident for the road to be repaired despite it being regularly reported by local residents. Friend was knocked unconscious hitting her head, taken to hospital by ambulance where they failed to carry out a CT scan of her head.
She was unable to work for some time (self employed), her life was a round of appointments to her GP regularly, optician, dentist, maxillofacial consultant, orthopaedic consultant, audiologist, neurologist and more. Some of these appointments were not local and she was not fit to drive.
She will eventually be reimbursed for her written-off bike, accessories, clothing and travel expenses. I’ve noticed a big change in her since the accident, it’s not something you completely recover from. She’s been very brave.
