Sorry to hear about your little mishap. Seems like you are OK though.
A few years back I got left turned by an 85 year old lady that looked right at me then decided to go anyway.
Crunched up my front end and broke my ankle. The cops would not even give her a ticket because they said she was on a fixed income and couldn't afford to pay a ticket. Even aftyer witnesses said she caused two other accidents up the street at an intersection.
Made out like a bandit though with the insurance company.
Watch for old people driving with them blinders on.
Anyway glad you are OK.
Happened to me in Oct 2005, slid and tumbled across an entire intersection then the guy took off, never located him..what did i do?? limped over and picked up my bike with a bit of help, straightend out the shifter, pulled the crash bar out enough to turn the wheels and drove it home...hang tough dude.
Sorry to hear and see that Cooldude.
Lets us know if you are OK
Last part of October, believe it or not, I was waiting to pull out of a church parking lot after service one Sunday.
Apparently the elder gentlemen behind me didn't like the sermon or something. I got rear ended my his mini van and he litterally knocked my E-Glide out from under me. Jammed elbow was all I got. And a broken heart because seeing my glide with her wheels pointing to the sky was a sight I hoped I would never see.
