Tonight I collided with a roadie in my motor vehicle
Bit complicated, twilight rainy rushhour, himlights but dark clothing and haring downhill on main road followed me into a side road and didn't expect me to be turning into first driveway. Me coming other way.
So if there is a need for blame I think he did a lot more wrong than me but im not after arguing it out, wasnt a huge impact but hurt his knee and did his front wheel. Made sure he was ok and not far to go. 🙁
Im just glad it was a minor to-do and we both live another day 🙂

Soz, me coming up hill turned into side road him coming down at speed and followed me obviously carrying most of his speed not expecting me to then stop, one way street and he chose the side I was turning to come past. I wuz indicating but it was same way I just turned first time. Unfortunate luck he chose that side and couldnt quite stop in time.

So he turned into a minor road (without first checking that it was clear) and then hit you?

So he tried to pass you while you were indicating at a junction/driveway?

If thats the case I hope all are alright and when he feels better he gives himself a kicking for doing something stupid.
