A dad who shattered his arm after a 'botched' safety measure catapulted him from his bicycle is suing Croydon Council. Richard Lander was cycling down busy Brighton Road in the evening rush hour when he pulled out of the cycle lane to overtake a bus which had pulled into a stop at around 4:45pm on November 3. In the late autumn darkness, the dad-of-two says he did not see a black 'base' on road which divides bikes and traffic, and was catapulted over the handlebars, hitting the ground so hard he broke his wrist. Six weeks later, after doctors stuck a metal plate in his arm, the 63-year-old IT project manager says he is still in constant pain and does not know when can get back to riding. Mr Lander has since complained to the council about the road safety measures and has instructed Osbornes Law to take legal action in a bid to highlight the issue and get the council to make changes.
