Few years ago, I had a motorbike accident, I was riding my honda
or a clear saturday afternoon, traffic light was green, I went on,
suddenly a car turn left from the junction without looking for
incoming traffic, knocked my bike, I flung about 10 meter away, get
bruises on my palm and arms, lucky for legs, only my jean was torn,
without it, it could be my skin against the road.
The guy drive a honda civic, apologised to me, helped me up and
called the ambalance and police, we exchanged ID, took pictures
with Hp, my bike was towed away, I called my insurance, they noted
and I was given 3 days medical leaves. A week later, TP called me
up at Ubi for statement and legal proceeding,
When I went into the office, the TP officer talk very nice to
me, asked me if I am ok, I thought it was a normal proceeding of
making a short statement, the shock I get was, I was charged for
beating the red light and causing dangerous to other due to my
action, my insurance co is withholding all repair till further
notice, I hv the right to get witness and lawyer to fight for
it.
I told the office, that guy apologised to me, he said he was
wrong, he acknowledge in front of the police that it his mistake,
he turned without a look out for coming traffic, I am a victim of
his negligence driving. The office said, he and his lawyer
statement given was, it was a red light with green arrow for
turning, you will driving at a fast speed, and luckily he brake in
time, if not you could be in more serious condition.
So, you see the change of statement?
