Caring nurse...not!

[Graham]

Had a phone call today from my son to say someone's knocked him off his motorbike. I race to the scene to find him sitting on the side of the road along with his bent up bike.

 

A woman who happened to be a nurse pulled straight out in front of him and he's gone into the drivers' door. Hurt his leg and his head hit the door pillar. Luckily the helmet broke and his head didn't.

 

After the 'are you ok? etc she proceeds to tell him he shouldn't claim as it was his fault and his insurance premium will go up and he may have difficulty finding someone to insure him! He's a quiet sort and was dazed so he just took it in. But the thing that really annoys me js the fact that a member of the nursing profession should then just drive off and leave him sitting on the side of the road:confused1:

 

Anyway just wanted to rant about it. Passed all details to police and insurance and hopefully they'll deal with it.

Bizarre reaction! Hope your lad is okay and sorts his ride out soon enough.

And thats why I stopped riding bikes - had a mini pull out on me and ended up riding up the grass verge and back on the road to avoid it - the modern driver should do a bit more observation!

A Nurse, really, loads of woman call themselves nurses that includes nursery nurses, people that make the tea in an old folks homes and the girl that holds the gadgets for the dentist oh and the girl the takes the bookings in the vets.

I would be jumping to the conclusion that she isn't insured.

 

It is amazing the amount of people who aren't insured or don't have a license, who btw should all be shot.

 

Good to hear his injuries weren't anything more serious.

Thats disgraceful, phone the police, She should get a talking to by the boys in blue at the least.

more than that as a registered nurse she should help out at an accident or risk getting struck off the UKCC register - no register = no work.

 

That's the real reason she wanted to opt out - do her mate.

It's the NMC and that's not true, a nurse is under no obligation to help anyone, fact.
