Hi, i was on cycle, crossing roundabout from Sabadell bank to Arenal at 0945 this morning when hit by car coming from my right. Driver stopped picked up my bike, said he did not see then drove off. I was shocked and did not get any details of driver or car. Please did anyone see this accident? I was wearing Helmut and indicated my direction of travel.

 Lucking no bones broken but extensive cuts and bruises to arms and knees. Patched up at Salud. Thanks

Hi Tony,

Sorry, I'm not in your area, but just wanted to say that I'm glad you didn't suffer more serious injuries.  Have you asked at any of the nearby businesses whether they have CCTV that may have caught details of the car?

Take care,

Kim

Hi Kim, very kind of you to respond, I have been to bar on roundabout, bank, police etc, only CCTV  at bank not on roundabout. Police cannot do anything without name/ license number. 

Are you by any chance Kim who played Padel at port before Covid?

Thanks again for your kind message and advice, 

Regards Tony

Hi Tony,

No, I'm a different Kim, living in Costa Blanca South.  

Pity you can't get any CCTV footage - there's a lot to be said for cameras that monitor general areas, but they don't seem to use them in Spain as we do in the UK.  Coincidentally, a Swiss tourist reversed into our car on Saturday in a supermarket car park, which also didn't have cameras but, fortunately, we were in the car when he did it! 

Kind regards,

Kim
