Right.
I was cycling home from work about an hour ago and on an unlit main road, there was a guy who had got wasted and come off his bike. I didn't see him until too late and hit his bike, which resulted in me also in a heap on the floor. I did have lights, but only enough to see a little in front of me. Basically the minimum requirement for riding at night.
However, this has twisted my front wheel. I need my bike due to the location of my job and also the hours I work. I'm skint until payday now and need my bike fixed. Should I make the dickhead pay for the damage? Is there any legal responsibility on his part for the damage? How could I claim?
Any advice would be great!
