I was knocked off my bike by a black Prius on Sunday 3 June at 1335 on Lyndhurst Way - the driver didn?t stop (@&$@$!!!!).


The car was turning on to Lyndhurst Way from Lyndhurst Grove and didn?t see me. I and two friendly passers-by only got the first half of the reg (LB60 ). I?m pretty sore and my bike?s totalled.


If anyone saw it happen and took down the car?s reg I?d appreciate you getting in touch.


Cheers.

Sorry to hear this. Report it to the police, they may be able to narrow it down (if they can be bothered). Also, if you get a crime number, you can make a claim for damages to your bike and personal injury to the Motor Insurance Bureau, which exists specifically to compensate victims of hit-and-runs and uninsured drivers https://www.mib.org.uk/


Hope it doesn't put you off cycling, ride safe.

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      By Eats Dulwich · Posted

      I sometimes don't feel as comfortable as I did but it's not because I'm older, it's because I'm sober. Staggering home when I was younger I always felt I like a had a cloak of invisibility around me. And a magic compass - not even sure how I found my way home some nights.

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      By NewWave · Posted

      I'm London born and bred and have always considered myself streetwise having grown up in Notting hill (pre getrification) and I lived on the border of Harlesden (kensal green) in the 90's  when it was pretty sketchy round there .and I spent much of the 80's and early 90's in downtown New York.. I would walk everywhere at all hours of the day and night and never felt particularly uneasy largely because I was always mindful of my surroundings and walked with 'purpose'. I don't know wether its because I'm now so much older but I don't feel as comfortable as I used to walking round London. Today I was in the West end and I made sure to carry my bag on the opposite arm to that facing the kerb and felt uneasy when I saw people wizzing around on limebikes or scooters close to the kerb..I never got my phone out at all...I never used to feel like this but just recently I've had friends witness phone and bag snatching in central london in broad daylight..apparently it happened so fast in both instances there was nothing anyone could do to help..One phone snatching was during the tube strike 7.30am two guys on bikes grabbed a mans phone..My friend took the victim to a nearby hotel to sit down and recover the hotel said due to the tube strike they had witnessed many duo's of youth out very early on bikes aware that there were more pedestrians around at that time with their phones out trying for Ubers or looking at directions. I would'nt say I feel 'unsafe' I just feel more aware of being a possible target for crime than formerly. I don't know if this is due to being older or due to reading the press.

      The fact everyone has had a CCTV camera in their pockets for the last 15+ years has done a huge amount to prevent and mitigate random drunken violence.  Thugs can't get away with what they used to anymore.
