Been hit by a car whilst riding in a cycle lane...

If someone pulls across your lane, it is not a 50/50 claim, even if you are head down, it is the persons who is pulling across to ascertain if the road is clear, not just blindly go and hope anyone coming up the road stops for you.

In my opinion you were partially to blame. Given when the impact was the vehicle was in the lane prior to arriving so either you were not paying attention and potentially too fast. I'm sure that's not what you wanted to hear but that's how I read the situation and if it were two vehicles I'd expect a 50/50 claim.

Wrong. Next.
