Biker crashes and dies after being hit by a cop on the phone who gets off

Powell Vs Moody says that if a car is emerging from a side turn and hits an overtaking m'bike, it's OK.

And it's legal to use a mobile if you're not handling it.

Both these laws suck - the former president happened when mods and rockers were a menace to society; the latter was a piss-poor compromise that achieved nice hands-free sales for Halfords and nothing else. But that's the law as it is, which is why she hasn't been prosecuted.

I can't remember the case but i believe that the Powell Vs Moody has been superseeded as a test case by another more favourable one, I think the lawyer who answer questions in fast bikes won it. But i might be wrong.
