Think this was done last year. The answer is probably no.

People who think like this are why the country is falling apart. Who can I blame for my own actions? Neutral

Ok its been snowing here for the past 4 days, every day ive been doing a 7 mile commute to the girlfriends and its been fine, but last night i got caught out and slid front first into a curb thus breaking my lovely fairing on my nsr i spent weeks sanding and spraying and possibly broken my foot, the road is 100% ungritted! there was more grit in my ears than on that stretch of road, a semi major a road.

Can i claim off the council to get my fairing replaced? or for an injury

awaits comments such as "twat you shouldnt be out in the snow"


Well police said not to travel unless absolutely necessary... I have gone out once, ended up shitting bricks and parked the car back up.. theres snow up to the chain on the bike...

But no, you cant claim.. they dont grit all the roads.

Right, so..

You want to claim against the council because you drove on a road that was covered in snow not knowing if it was gritted or not?

That is read as: "I don't want to man up and accept I did something wrong so I'm going to go play the blame game and try and get some cash out of it."

If you cared about the NSR so much you shouldn't have taken it out in such dangerous conditions.

It's your own fault, take some responsibility, it's people like you that propagate this ridiculous blame and claim culture that up insurance premiums for everyone. Thumbs Down.

Due to the prevailing weather conditions you will probably find the highway authority can prove it has acted reasonably, in that it will be concentrating it's efforts on keeping major roads clear/gritted. Don't waste your time or that of the highway authority in pursuing any action. Hope your foot gets better soon.

This is why people buy cheap winter hacks and leave the nice bikes at home. But no, you won't be able to claim as you ignored police advice and weren't riding to the road conditions

Hazardous conditions - 'stay off the roads unless journey is essential.'
The council hasn't got the capacity, manpower or funding to grit, clear and ensure every road in the country is safe that's why they put out warnings to stay off the roads in these conditions.
If you choose to ignore the warnings then thats your choice.

To be fair, we don't know how hot and horny his girlfriend is, and therefore how necessary the trip was.

What everyone else said sorry. It riles me when people sue one another for something that could have been avoided with a little common sense..

Its snowing, its slippery. Suing the council is a bit of a cop out, and the money has to come from somewhere; ie the taxpayer, ie us.

Bad that you damaged your bike though//

So - Logic says that is CofE represents God, you can sue them - instead of the council.

All you have to do is contact the parasitic spunk stain on the trousers of humanity at Where there's blame there's a claim and give them CofE's address (below) Remember to tell em' your not quite man enough to accept responsibility, and would like to get some wonga out of them, as it's clearly their fault you crashed your "pristine, as new, one of a kind, unique" NSR that featured a brand new pink powerband, gold plated rearsets and diamond encrusted bar ends, that are now ruined because of their sheer incompetance and inability to control current climate conditions and the high pressure over Greenland and low pressure in the Baltic states, forcing cold winds across Europe - the bastards.

Hope that helps.







Edit: piss taking aside, i'm sorry you fcked your bike, and hope you get it sorted soon!

Haha, fail.

It snows
Authorities say Don't go out unless you really need to
You then go to your misses house, on a bike in this weather
You then don't ride/drive according to road conditions
And this is someone elses fault?

Laughing It was a Billy Connoly movie wasn't it?
Wasn't there argument that he had to sue the Catholic church instead, becouse they claimed that the CofE was only a break-away faction, and only the Pope was gods representative...
and something to do with a Rabi!
Funny film.... only cought it from the middle unfortunately.
Had a tree fallen on his house or something? And what was it called?
