ORIGINAL: GADawgs

Thank goodness I wasn't on the streetglide today. Some dumbazz rearended my truck. I saw the dude in my mirror and he was far enough back for me make a right turn safely. Before I could get into the driveway good he ran right into me. I was pissed off. First thing out of his mouth I don't have insurance or a DL.

He said he saw me turning but his brakes did not work. I'm almost positive he was on the cellular phone![:@]

But my bike is still in good shape...Sorry had to rant alittle.

Quantum behavior of the universe's chaotic nature: Had you been on the bike you wouldn't have been right there at that time.

Sorry to hear that, Last month the wife and i were on our way to pick a new to me RK Custom and there was an accident in front of us on I85, 9 cars were in the accident and i avoided beening in it and just when i thought it was clear i looked in my rear view mirror just in time to see the Chevy truck hit me. He said he was hit from behind and pushed into me and after looking at his truck and the car that hit him he wasnt going to stop before he hit me. So now the guy who hit me and the guy that hit him are sueing each other as they say the other is at fault for hitting my truck.
