At around half nine in the morning I was in a rta today while on my bicycle (road bike) riding on my way to work, I am a careful and safe cyclist and I know the other party was at fault, they even got out of their vehicle to say sorry and admit liability for the incident.
I have spent the last 5 hours in hospital and they told me I had dislocated my shoulder, sprained my elbow and had muscle damage in my right arm from the crash.
As well as this my bike is damaged and so is my phone. I also have video evidence the other party was at fault from my camera and a police incident number, where the police also said the other party was at fault, the only issue I have, is the bike was a gift so I don't have a receipt for it, but I need it to get to work and I am sick off work with my injuries so I want compensation for loss f earnings.
Do you think I have a case then?
one more question what sort of time frame would it be roughly for the process as this is my primary means of transport getting to and from work is my bike and I need to have it replaced as soon as I recover or else I may not be able to work or claim sick pay.
