    I don't know but hopefully when I'm done he'll be standing there with his pockets turned inside out with a begging cup in his hand. I'm tired of driving for me and the other drivers around me. This lady ruined a wonderful thing for me - an escape that only those who ride can understand. My wife is scared to death, and rightfully so, and I have to resign myself to the fact that I may never sit on a bike again, unless I want to be single and alone. But I will try my best to make sure this lady that rammed into to me never does it again and that she will keep her eyes on the road. Whether she was on the phone that will come out in the litigation.

    Should we start a betting pool ?

    - Phone
    - Texting
    - Applying Makeup
    - Interacting with the kid in the back seat
    - Watching the XYZ on the side of the road
    - Looking for something in her purse
    - Playing with the stereo
    - etc.

    I had a woman rear end me right after I bought one of the first new models that were released in my state. The woman thought nothing of rear ending a motorcyclist with a van. No big deal, absolute disregard. Once I looked at her front and rear bumpers, I realized she was a serial repeat offender. I am surprised she still had a drivers license. She gave me fake insurance information, offered to send me a check if I didn't report it and lied to the cop and her insurance company. The cop could easily see she was lying by the damage and the eye witnesses. Her insurance company realized she was lying once they got an unaltered copy of the police report.

    That bitch needs to be taught a lesson. Sue her ass off for what she's done. Sometimes the only way you can get through to people is through their pocketbook.

    Take her to the cleaners Mike. Maybe next time she won't run another biker down.
    Agreed, they need to learn a lesson. Unfortunately, suing is the only legal way to teach that lesson since the laws allow them to keep their licenses. She was recklessly operating an "assault weapon".

    In the works already, hopefully she will never do this again if I wasn't on this superior bike it could have been much different
