The driver just left him and no one came to help him I was so annoyed. Luck enough he has not broken anything although he is badly bruised all down one side.

the was a lady at the bus stop and she just looked the other way! how can someone be so cruel. thanks Wendy

Bloody hell, Julia! What a terrible thing to happen. Give him a gentle hug from me, eh. x Just read your next reply - I shall never understand some of my fellow human beings. Especially the 'it's got nothing to do with me' brigade.

Oh for goodness sake you could do with one very big hug XXXXXXXXXXXXHUGXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Julia What a nasty shock for you. I hope your son recovers soon. I have a friend whose 14 year old boy fell off his bike and broke his leg. He lay in the road whilst cars drove past him - eventually another cyclist came to his rescue. I can't believe some people! nell

thanks everyone he is 14 and was on the way home from school when it happend

Yes Wendy I hope there are, how anybody can just drive off and or ignore a person like that is beyond belief! Julia wishing your son a speedy recovery! Lib:)) xx

I had to read this three times to see if I had missed something. That is shocking, hope he is ok. How old is he? Marion

hiya julia. ahhhh your poor son and you. how can anyone leave a child or anyone. with out checking things are ok. Some people have no hearts, just a swinging brick on a rope, xxxxx

I hope your son is ok. What a b......d the driver is. Unfortunately i can understand the lady not wanting to get involved. I went to help a child who had got knocked over. The car just tapped her and fortunately the child was not hurt in the slightest. The parents tried to sue me for not insisting the child was taken to hospital. We offered to call an ambulance at the time but she refussed it on several occasions. So what was i supposed to do. I ended up making myself ill with the worry of possibly being sued and i hadnt done anything wrong. Anyway i really do hope your son is ok. Jane

julia, did your son manage to get reg no? have you informed the police? send your son our love & hugs. can't believe the driver never stopped. lynnxx

Julia that's terrible. Report it to the police. Surely it should be classed as a hit and run.

Jane that must of been awful Lynn hubby has been to police today but my son did not get the reg :-( Julia

Hi Julia I hope they get him. Jane

do you know any witnesses or cctv in the area? did he damage the car? mirror or any paint traces? lynnxx

Julia, That is awful! I cant even leave a dog never mind a boy. I cant understand anyone that wont get involved, its a very sad world. I hope he soon gets better, keep an eye on him. Love June xx

Julia That's shocking - it beggars belief - there is no way I could drive/walk past another human or animal in distress. Wishing your son a quick recovery. Debby

Julia how dreadful and thank heaven he wasn't more badly injured. Bad enough that the driver didn't stop but quite appalling that someone else should actually look the other way. Let's hope she never needs help herself one day. Daisy

thanks all. Lynn the was cctv on the road. so hopefully it will show something Julia

omg julia thats terrible, hope whoever knock your son down gets caught. Wishing him well bless him Luv JoJo xx
