The Story about this TAC Claim
At 71 years old, our client, a retired technical instructor, lived an active life—until a devastating bicycle accident changed everything.
On the morning of 18 February 2024, he was riding north on High Street, Bendigo, in the designated bike lane. The road was clear, the weather dry, and traffic moved at a 60km/h speed limit. Without warning, a vehicle struck him from behind, hurling him onto the car’s bonnet, cracking the windshield with his head, and leaving him unconscious on the road.
The driver fled briefly before returning to the scene, admitting to police they may have fallen asleep at the wheel. Our client remembers nothing of the crash—only waking in the hospital, likely a day later, with no recollection of his family by his side.
The aftermath was gruelling: three months bedridden in a spinal brace, relentless headaches from a severe concussion, and painful facial and bodily wounds requiring daily care. Wheelchair-bound at first, he now remains with ongoing restrictions. His prized carbon-fibre bike was destroyed in the impact.
This is his story of resilience—and how legal support helped him seek justice and rebuild his life.
