Hi,
can someone please put my mind at rest on this because it's really shaken me up. I was just pulling
away from work on my bike and saw the bus in front of me brake and there was a thud, I saw a body
fall to the ground. I carried on cycling and reached for my mobile. By the time I pulled up the bus
driver was already off the bus and making a call on his phone and about 10 people were crowding
around. I know no first aid watsoever so just got back on my bike and started cycling. Trouble is,
the young lad who looked in his late teens was lying lifeless on his back with lots of blood on the
road from the back of his head. I don't think the bus was going at a great speed and it hadn't
actually run over the lad, he was lying directly in front of the bus.
I have never seen anything like that and I just wanted someone to assure me that that doesn't
necessarily mean it was a fatal accident and that if you cut your head open in such a way could mean
there would be large amounts of blood.
I cannot even remember my 10 mile ride home, it was a blur and I was so conscious of the traffic it
made me quite scared to be out there
I'm sorry if this is not the correct place to post this but I know many of you have done research
into head injuries by all the helmet threads that go on.
