Should I Contact Car Insurance If I Knocked a Cyclist Off a Cycle

So a recordable crime is not one that carries a potential prison sentence or one that ends up on the PNC then? Oh, my mistake.

Nobody has shown me anything. What qualifications have you got? Some motoring offences are criminal offences thus recordable. I havn't judged the OPs wife at all... The OP himself suggests that the police arn't taking any further action. I am totally aware that a person will not necessarily get arrested on the spot but still may be prosecuted.

So why did you say this and continue to argue the fact?

The police should be able to furnish her with those details. If the police thought for one minute your wife was at fault, they would of arrested her on suspicion of a careless driving related matter.

I know of at least one recent case where a cyclist with no lights was 'killed' in a rear end collision at night where the car driver was declared to be blameless. Obviously it depends on the circumstances of which no one here knows 100%.

More ignorance.

A recordable crime maybe undetected, so who's conviction would go on the pnc?

Please say if you don't know what that means rather than further embarrass yourself.

What I should of said I suppose that if the police were convinced or they had sufficient evidence. OK, i'll take that one on the chin but what about my 'wrong' definition of a recordable crime?

Try google, I'm a newbie so you'll say I'm wrong.

I don't understand what you mean by that.

Maybe it's time to remember the rule regarding not feeding the trolls.

Is that reminder aimed at me or are you calling me a troll?

Arguing with this guy (Tilt) just seems to feed him!
