Now get this. While people were helping me up, the guy that hit me took off!! Nobody got his licensenumber.

Wow! The best part is that you're gonna be ok but that sentence right there is the one that makes my blood boil. Did he stop at first?
Where did this happen?
Hang in there, let us know how your bike winds up.
SS
Yes! He stopped, got out, asked me if I was OK. I said yes and started to get up. A bunch of people rushed at me as told me to stay down but I didn't listen. I saw the gas leaking out and I wanted to stand the bike back up and I started to lift it and people helped me. Then I looked over and saw that the SUV was gone! I said where did he go? Everybody was furious and they stuck around to tell the cops that the guy took off. Everyone was so focused on helping me that they didn't notice he left. He was already on the highway on-ramp so I guess he figured that was his chance to book out of there! A-hole!

If by some wild chance he's found, the price he'll pay got a lot higher.
Any kind of Hiway Dept traffic camera or ATM camera etc around?

Holy crap, Frank! So glad that you're ok! Let us know bike damage & any updates on whether or not they catch the scumbag that ran over you! Again... I'm just glad you're alright.

So many questions ... but never mind, I'm just glad that you're alive and home with your family.
You can ask, dynaglider. It's OK.
