Aftermath of a Sorry mate I didn't see you.
On the way to work yesterday morning, I doing about 30 to 40 Kph around 20-25 Mph when I see this fellow in a black BMW stopped at the yield sign next thing I know he pulls out into my path, braking as hard as possible, I go for the gap which kept getting smaller, I headed for the ditch to avoid him and eventually had to bail out.
He stops, while I pick my self up and he "I didn't see you", Now the exchange I said "If you looked you would have seen me", and he replies "but there is dip you can't see and you must have been in the dip" So I says "if I saw you and tried to stop if you looked you would have seen me" but not his fault. I called the cops they listen to both sides and he admits to them he did not see me.
He argues with the cops and the lady cop points out the yield sign and told him that when the insurance company ring them she will be telling them that he pulled out from a side road with a yield sign when it wasn't safe to do so end of story and he still argures that it was not his fault.
He then tells the cops that if he had pulled out in front of me I would have run into the side of him. She then tells him that from the marks on the road and grass that I took avoiding action to prevent a crash to my own detriment
I'm here listening in disbelief.
