22 November 2011
RJW represented a cyclist who was on her way home when she hit a pothole with her front tyre, causing her to crash into a metal barrier at the side of the road.

At the time of the accident she did not seek medical assistance but instead visited her GP at a later date who subsequently sent her to St George's Hospital due to the pain she was suffering with her cycling injuries.
