rearended last night.
Drunk rearended me, traveling in excess of 110 mph, running from the law.
multiple dui's, no ins, no lic, no reg, fled the scene. never slowed down. after his initial attempt to stop before impact, he got back on the gas weaving back and forth trying to dislodge the bike from his car, when he finally spun me and the bike off into the other lane, he fled, again at a high rate of speed. when the law found him, he was at home, in bed, asleep.
I should not be here. I shouldn't be alive. I stopped approx 250 ft from point of impact. the bike travelled about 300 ft.
Miracles do happen. I got up and ran out of the road when I stopped sliding. I helped drag my own bike out of the road as well, much to the protest of bystanders, who were mainly just getting on my nerves.
I have some road burn, whiplash (severe) broken left hand, disloc right shoulder, 3 inch lac over left eye which took both inner and outer stitches. Lost quite a bit of skin and blood,
The ACC helmet took an incredible blow at my left temple. it is cracked, not broken. I am convinced it saved my life.
I was wearing full leathers, or I would have lost a lot mote skin than I did.
I have multiple bruises, basically I am just one big bruise. It is very difficult to move.
As if the bike weren't in bad enough shape to begin with, we were on the blind side of a hill, and an eighteen wheeler ran over it, seconds after I got myself out of the road.
I am going to take a severe financial beating out of this. Just doesn't seem right somehow.
The accident was 100% unavoidable on my part. He was just moving too fast.
all grammer and spelling is off bets. I'm on hydro's, typing with one eye and one fingr=er, and too tired to care.

And sue the f*** out of the drunk. Take everything he has. Absolutely everything.
Get on the mend. Hope you're insides didn't turn into any goo.
Happy you survived!
Yikes, I'm glad you came out of that relatively OK. The bike, near and dear to your heart as it may be, can be replaced. Get well soon and do whatever the prosecutor needs you to do to help hammer this azzhole.
Man, you are lucky, if you're a believer yoou have some thanking to do, if not, you need to sacrifice a chicken ( I find kentucky fried chicken works good ) [sm=lol.gif]

Damn Dude!! You are lucky to be alive. Focus on getting well and getting the pieces of yourself and your life back together. Keep us posted and let us know if we can help and when we can go on your first ride with you.
You are a lucky man. Able to get on the forums the next day. Wow. The bike is replaceable. Get a good attorney who knows motorcycle accidents and you chould be taken decent care of. Hopefully the drunk has a decent insurance policy. the most important thing is that you are still here and are okay.
