2024-10-25 when I was walking on pedestrian crossing a car suddenly started driving and bumped into me. I had to smack on bonnet and scream to avoid being run over. I was not able to get license plate before the car drove away and was not sure what to do next. However, then I spent whole night dealing with flashbacks. So, I knew what I have to do. I need to report it.
I hope I will be able to use experience from 2015-03-30 road traffic injury and update guideline for Road traffic injury.
