On a positive the cyclist stopped at the scene and arranged an ambulance.
They didn’t exchange details, an offence but, possibly due to concern for the injured party.
Like motorists, this needs to be reported to the police as someone was injured. I do hope they report it.
Best wishes to the victim for speedy recovery.
So much illigal cycling in this city. Running Red lights, texting and riding and riding with no lights in dark clothing at night time.
Let’s hope this law change in the summer regarding e-scooters and insurance applies to bikes too. No idea why you can legally ride a bike on a road with no road awareness training and no insurance. Mental
