I thought you said in the OP a copper saw it all?

"Micra pulls out directly in front of me for no reason, I didn't even have time to swerve. My front wheel hit the car so hard it went through the numberplate and grill and into the engine compartment somewhere"
If a car pulls out directly in front of you how did you hit it in the front enough to have your leg hit his windscreen. How did you not hit the side of the car?
I'm not doubting you I'm just trying to imagine how the insurance company are viewing your position on the road.
The car was already slightly facing right at the give-way .. then he turned right straight away meaning he was already maybe 35 degrees right when I hit him .. he didn't come straight out .. he actually turned into me whilst doing a kind of wide-arc into the left hand lane!!! If you get me.
I did a superman over his bonnet and my left leg kicked his windscreen on the way past.
The policeman was actually a 'community support officer'. I got his shoulder number. The car driver said on the record to him 'it was 100% the car drivers fault I admit it was my fault'. He also saw and heard it (I didn't bother with other witnesses therefore -- open and shut case?) When I phoned the station when car driver started lying, so I could speak to the officer, they said that the community officer did not want to make any comment on the incident and would not unless forced to a courtroom - he would definately not say ANYTHING AT ALL WHATSOEVER with regards to any call from any insurance firm, would just answer 'no comment' to everything. He wouldn't speak to me personally, but stated through his colleague that he had made no record whatsoever about the entire incident and could remember nothing and saw it as a 'private incident' and can't remember anything that was said or happened!!
Trust me, it's a horror show ... it's going to go to a 'knock for knock' which means equal liability
Everyone is saying it now
My insurance is going to pay 50% of getting HIS car fixed up ..
I think the community officer is afraid of the expectations on him if he gets involved in this incident, is scared of dealing with something semi-serious rather then showing old biddies the way to the post office
believe it or not
I'm not sure exactly what he expected when he took the role on , but now he's legging it away from the whole thing as fast as he can. I don't know what's going on ... I'm getting screwed though. And to think, I did nothing wrong, and I could have died
