the driver has had a think about it and admits it was her fault…They want her to sort the claim out ASAP.

Good news, but don't. The injuries and subsequent rehab could take weeks or months to reveal the full extent. maybe go for an interim payment to cover out of pocket stuff, but not for the injury / distress / compensation.  Talk to the CTC lawyer.

Wot Jonv says - - thats very unusual to me for a company to want to settle quickly and you don't know the extent of the damages yet.  You could ask them what they are offering?  Replacement bike and kit plus how many thousands for the injury.  there is a table somewhere on the net that shows what injury payments usually are iirc - motor insurers  or something?

Just a little update on this.

Been in touch with the police and the woman is being sent on a driver improvement course where she will be assesed.

They will then decide what to do with her after that.

So good news and at least she will now realize that she's done something wrong and quite dangerous.

Hey Stu, how's Amanda doing? Recovering well hopefully. Is she back out on the bike yet?

Peter.

She's slowly getting there but having to use a wrist brace to ride as she still has no strength in it and a lack of movement.

I'm sure it just needs a bit more time and exercise/physio and it'll be back to normal.

Cheers for asking though.👍🏻
