    Question How were you hit by a car?

    This poll is just to satisfy my curiosity about how many people have been involved in accidents involving cagers. I left it as multiple choice on purpose.

    Never an accident, but countless near misses involving sightless drivers. The only off I have ever had was my own fault in the NC mountains. Took a corner too quickly trying to "keep up" with better riders.
    RIP Brandon Williford... you will be missed, brother.

    In '09 some lady didn't feel like waiting and decided to try and beat the traffic and made the infamous left hand turn in front of me and totaled my old ZX-6R.

    A car backed into the right side of me while I was stopped waiting for the gate to open from my apartment complex, girl was parked in a parking place before she reversed into me.

    Sitting at a red light I was hit from behind by a PREGNANT 15 YEAR OLD with no license that had stolen her mama's Ford Taurus to go find her baby daddy. Witnesses (there just happen to be 3 police officers at the intersection staring at me) estimated her speed to be about 40mph, and she never slowed down.
    It dosen't matter how you find the pot of gold,
    All that matters is that you beat the leprechauns.

    Does any 2 wheels count? On my bicycle twice. Once with a van's mirror and the other a left turn in front of me. Neither one stopped.

    Although a car never hit me, I did however hit a car, a car that turned left in front of me, as I was attempting to pass it,
    it was the 3rd car in the chain.
    No tickets were issued.
    I was doing about 60 mph at the point of impact.
    After flipping over the car I landed on my feet "running", behind a sliding bike.
    Neither my brother nor myself were seriously hurt.
    No gear, just helmets.
    No road rash either, well almost none.
    As I said, I landed on my feet.
    It happened in October of 1977, it was my only accident.
    About 240k to 250k miles accident free!

    I rear ended a stopped car......
    "Beware of the lollipop of mediocrity. One lick and you'll suck forever!"Brian Willson

    “I guess it's because we all want to believe that what we do is very important, that people hang on to our every word, that they care what we think. The truth is, you should consider yourself lucky if you even occasionally get to make someone - anyone - feel a little better. After that, it's all about the people that you've let into your life.”— J.D.
