Biker suffers serious injuries in Swinemoor Lane crash

“@ Kustard2011 - "So Mildred you are one of the great exceptions in the world namely that you are the only one who can ride or drive correctly and every one else is an IDIOT. Or is it that you walk everywhere. Humility is not one of your strong points. A village misses you."

Whereas... intelligence is not one of yours!

Rather than reading into a comment something that is neither stated, nor intended, how about reading it properly. To clarify, my comment says that something "may" have happened, but "who am I to comment, as I wasn't there," which intimates - if anything - that people who were not there should not be making remarks.

(As both a fairly novice motorcyclist and a professional car driver, I have come across many motorcyclists who ride like morons, and many car drivers who are simply not observant enough. Similarly, there are many who drive/ride very well.)

So read it properly; seek clarification if you do not understand; don't jump to conclusions and dish out abuse before you have a clear understanding of meaning/intentions.”

“Hi, can anyone please confirm Michael's surname, just give first and last initial if cant give full name on here.

Thanks

Vic”

“Thanks you for clarifying the situation with some important facts. The lady was driving at 5mph yet her car was written off.”

"Could have been an idiot biker going too fast AND an idiot car driver not being observant enough.

So Mildred you are one of the great exceptions in the world namely that you are the only one who can ride or drive correctly and every one else is an IDIOT. Or is it that you walk everywhere. Humility is not one of your strong points. A village misses you.”

“Lisa and Laura's co-operation in this awful matter has restored a little of my faith in human nature. Well done ladies.
It is not a pleasant matter for either of you I am sure and you should both be commended for acting like adults.
Hopefully Michael will make a speedy recovery and I wish you all the very best for the future.xx”

“Laura glad your ok and Lisa wish Michael a speedy recovery. Just wanted to say that people should stop Partioning blame onto either person and should just let the police get on with there enquiries and investigation. We should all be thankful that there wasn't any fatalities in this accident especially the little boy. I seem to remember just a few months back a biker on the same road had an accident and his body shattered into pieces all over the road. Once again let the police do there job because blaming either Laura or Michael isn't doing anybody any good.”

“graham1960, Thank you xx”

“laura 725, thankyou i really apprieciate it, its good to hear that you and your little boy are ok. like you said everyone one is alive and thats the main thing. I have just been to see him and he is comfortable. i will pass on my regards to him, and the same to you from us xx”

“As the father of the car driver and despite the fact that my daughter and my two-year old grandson were in the car that was written off in the collision, I wouldnt be callous or arrogant enough to make public statements about a motorcyclist who is seriously injured and could easily have died. The comments of others who were obviously not there at the scene can only cause real pain for the rider and his family. We all wish the motorcyclist a speedy and full recovery and advise his wife to ignore the ill informed comments attached.”

“I am the lady who was driving the car which was involved in this particular accident I would very much appreciate it if people would keep their opinions to themselves as none of you know what actually happened I did NOT ignorantly pull out on him I was driving at less than 5mph cautiously as any responsible parent driving with a child would. All of these comments are making this whole experience even more stressful for my family and I can imagine its the same for Lisa and hers so please put a stop to it NOW and let the police do their job! Lisa I truly hope that Michael is ok as you can imagine my main concern was for my little boy and he is ok Thank God and therefore I am just relieved that we are all alive and despite injuries that is the main thing. Pass on my regards please Lisa”
