£105,000 settlement for road traffic victim

A man who was seriously injured when he was dragged under the wheels of a coach in South London has received £105,000 in compensation in an out of court settlement. He was wheeling his bicycle across a side street when he was hit by a coach turning left that knocked him to the ground and ran over his legs and feet. The man was airlifted to hospital with a catalogue of injuries to his lower body, including a dislocated left foot, a fractured left ankle, ligament and bone damage around his left knee, a fractured right femur and an injured right ankle. It was a full six months before he was able to return to work.
