I had something very similar happen to me, i also pressed charges, and the outcome was much the same, I was taken out by Streatham Common, the driver even looked at me, he then turned directly in front of me i went over the bonnet smashed his windcreen and he carried on leaving me on the floor, a girl on the bus stop got the number, he got 6 points, and a 600 pound fine, i agree with Mr Green a ban would have been more in line with the crime comitted. I am now claiming for injury and damage to my bike and clothing, watch this space.
