Going around a round a bout and turning right, woman checking her facebook didn't give way and I seen she wasn't going to stop, either put my foot down and risk her hitting the side or rear, or stand still and brace, so I stopped, she hit me still looking at her phone to didn't even touch the brakes once, she was doing around 40mph and shunted me a good 8-10 foot over a mini round about! Fine though, bad back and stuff but still here I guess!

Thanks! Car was written off the same day and got paid out £8500  within 2 days so was happy enough, removed a few bits and bobs myself too, but paid of finance and other stuff leaves me with around £2500 for my next car as I want to avoid finance!

As far as I know, well when I left the scene the copper said he will be looking into it, then latest I heard was there was a data transfer on her phone around that time to Facebook! Every single car I ever get will always have bluetooth again to stop things like this happening!

If that's the case I'd be baying for blood. Could have been a life she'd written off, not just a car.

She admitted liability and the witness said to me she admitted to him she was on the phone too, "I didn't see him as I was on the phone" is what she said exactly! Just trying to get myself fully fit before I try think about the money, the PI claim is in already and I have 10 weeks of physio ahead of me first :(

Like you say, at least you are still here. I can't believe the stupidity of some people. Imagine a children's crossing at school leaving time :sick:
