On Saturday, September 20, on Third Road, Bredell, at around 11pm, my son was involved in a hit-and-run accident.
He was riding his motorbike home when a car hit him from behind, knocking him over and trapping him beneath his bike.
The person kept driving, pushing my son along in front of his car; luckily the bike came loose and my son was pushed to the side of the road.
The car kept going, leaving my son in the road.
A few minutes later he managed to flag down a car coming towards him and the gentleman stopped to help him.
I want to say a big thank you to him, the CMS guy who called the ambulance, the police who responded, the paramedics and the Linmed Hospital.
Your kindness and professionalism got us through a difficult time.
My son has torn muscles in one leg and some bruising; we are very lucky, as it could have been so much worse.
To the person who hit my son: do you even know you nearly killed someone?
If you do, how could you just keep going?
You will be caught and I hope you rot in jail for the rest of your life!
