An adult was knocked down whilst cycling to work and suffered a fractured skull
together with associated fractures of the arms and legs. He suffered brain damage
and retired on ill health from work. He is unlikely to be able to pursue a career
or live independently and will require supervision and assistance on a daily basis.
Settlement agreed at £1.5m damages.
