Sux! Hope you heal fast. Also hope the idiot driver gets the chair. When reading these accounts, I love my FF Bell a little more.

i was just saying that!!! there really should be. If not for her poor judgement, i'd be out riding instead of being beat up, sitting home having this conversation! That being said at least i'm still here to have it.

Please do not say anything to her insurance or other Reps. Other than please call my Insurance or Lawyer. Hang up. No matter what they say you are being recorded and notes taken. There job is to make sure you get as little as possible and to prove you were some percentage at fault.
Note make sure your riding gear is replaced as well. Gloves, helmet Jacket ETC.
Good luck Brother Wear the Broken Wings with Pride.

I'd even go so far as to let my attorney talk to my insurance company. Insurance adjusters are nothing more than loss prevention. If your insurance company thinks for even a minute that they may have to pony up some cash they will do their best to minimize the hit.

Heal fast!

Misters Nevar and HolePuncher make very good and important points. You have to protect yourself. Let your lawyer do the talking to everyone/every entity involved.
