I WOULD just like to thank the female driver of the Land Rover that came out of Tennyson Street (opposite Russells Hall Hospital) on Valentine's Day afternoon and smashed into the side of my car, sending that side and my passenger up into the air.

I has just taken an 80-year-old to see her brother in hospital and she was already upset.

By the time I got out of my car someone in the nose-to-tail traffic on the other side going up to Pensnett Road, allowed the driver to cross the road, join the traffic and disappear. Because of the parked cars on my side I could not turn late into this line of traffic and anyway she could have taken any turning off the roundabout at the top.

There was a single decker bus passing as the accident happened and other drivers in that line of traffic must have seen something.

Someone down Tennyson Street or on that estate must know if she left at 3.50pm on Valentine's Day.

Thank you for writing my car off so I have been unable to help people with lifts etc.

What a wonderful example you set for your young passenger. You knew you had hit me and done much damage.

Then perhaps your car is one that is untaxed and uninsured.
