Halfdoesyn Posted August 8, 2016 Author Posted August 8, 2016 Difficult to tell what happened. The part fender looks like that of an Etios - the right side. Maybe it and the alleged double cab was in an accident together with the bike. Who knows?
Tubehunter Posted August 8, 2016 Posted August 8, 2016 Strongs to the rider! Agree that anyone running from an accident should be tarred and feathered!

Wannabe Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Seems that there is some awareness about this incident. http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/race-on-to-find-cyclists-hit-and-run-driver-20160810
Sani Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Just read the story on the news now , Very sad indeed . The pictures I saw indicates to Me that it is clear that the Cyclist was knocked down in the Yellow lane , The Culprit was clearly not looking at the road ,probably texting ,Hope They catch Him and put Him behind bars ASAP , Strongs to Our fellow Cyclist . Get well soon Buddy .
Wannabe Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 New evidence. Seems that that is an "old bumper that's been there for a while" (although I have never seen it before) and that an eyewitness says it was a white double cab. http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/no-arrests-in-cape-cyclists-hit-and-run-case-20160811
Eddy Gordo Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 damn, not another.Are there any cameras nearby to trace the vehicle maybe
nonky Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 With that bumper they will find the culprit quickly. Don't get your hopes up. I was involved in a hit and run where the bumper and NUMBER PLATE remained behind. Driver was obviously intoxicated as he was REVERSING up the road at high speed and in the wrong lane. SAPS did sweet f@ck-all, despite much pressure: "we could see the damaged vehicle from the roadside but we could not gain access to the property to speak to the owner". I kid you not.
