Too true
Very best wishes to the poor guy, and may the driver be struck down by a painful disease resulting in a slow and excruciating demise, or at least, (and so as to not upset any humanists), MTFU and hand himself in.

I was "lucky" with my hit and run on the side road near me because there were no other cars that matched the one that hit me and we got him bang to rights !

Just been out on the bike and came past Greenfold Way, it's the road thats the entrance to the industrial estate on Warrington Rd just after the Greyhound roundabout. Must be a local who hit him, as Hooten Ln is at the back of the housing estate on the right, a lot of playing fields round there.
Hope they catch the scum that did it.

Great news the scrote has been caught, but as others have said, he'll probably get off lightly. Although I hope the judge throws the book at him, (right between the eyes)!
