The Facts
Collision between car and motorbike leads to serious
injuries
In the mid-afternoon of 18 April 2016, a driver was driving her
car along Nicholson Street, Crows Nest in Sydney, looking for a
parking spot.
She had an aversion to parking in darkened parking stations and
preferred instead to park on the street. In searching for a parking
spot, she turned in front of an oncoming motor bike. The
motorcyclist tried to evade the car, but there was a collision and
the rider was thrown from his bike, suffering significant
injuries.
Those injuries included a compound fracture of his right leg,
with bone piercing through the skin above the knee, severe ligament
damage, various broken bones, dislocated knee, foot laceration and
a large open wound on the shin.
