Looking for witnesses on March 16th 11:10 at Rijksmuseum

Hi all,

Not sure if this type of post is allowed. But my girlfriend had a bike accident in front of Rijksmuseum (Museumplein side) on Sunday March 16th around 11:10.

She had to dodge a 3-year-old kid that stepped on the bicycle path. This resulted in her bike being damaged as well as a torn meniscus and a bruised back. As she was really shaken up by the fall she only asked for the phone number of the mother.

The mother is now claiming her kid was not on the bicycle path and has her mother as a witness. We think so she can’t be held accountable for the costs.

My girlfriend is still in pain from the fall and now also has to deal with a someone who doesn’t take responsibility for the damage her child has caused. Is there someone who was there and saw this happen? Please contact me via DM

Also any tips on how to deal with this situation are very welcome

Edit: many thanks for all the replies, posting on Reddit is always a good reality check! We will focus on her recovery and keep in mind that accidents can happen, even to experienced Dutch bikers.
