Got knocked down by a car today, very luckily the driver was edging out looking the other way while I was furiously applying my bike breaks in wet weather. The first the guy knew about it was probably my swearing blue murder at him.
He pulled over while I was on the floor, apologised saying it was entirely his fault - which IMO it most definitely was, but had the good grace to make a decent apology, make sure I was ok and offered to pay for any damage to my bike . I was already of a mind to forgive and forget, had a banged up knee and a little shakey but no broken bones and didn't feel he was being reckless it was an accident after all.
Then someone called up his name and I realised I knew him, he is an elected member of my local government.
Of course the moment has passed but I lay the case before mumsnet -which party did he belong to, and what are the ethics for reporting this to the police?
