What happens after a cager hits a rider?

[thumper 549]

I got run over once...Yup, he did not see me.
I was in the right, all most dead right.
But the lesson learned and learned the hard way!
I have not ever presumed a thing since then.
Every driveway, bush, an intersection is hiding a potential killer.
I now am the most invisible M/C on the road.
I just presume they do not see me, and they will do the wrong things
I cringe when I watch others ride..through intersections, never ever looking....
If you want morbid entertainment-go to the coffee shop near a corner....
Take a window seat-
Watch the number of motorcycles going through..never paying one bit of attn to the situation.
Learn your lesson if you can

So true.

I almost got whacked the other day. I was driving past a long line of vehicles that were stopped in the other direction; and suddenly a car just popped out perpendicular to the line of them; right in front of me. Thank goodness i HAD enough space to brake and avoid T-boning the vehicle as it turned in front of me and continued in the same direction I was going.

Never, ever, nonchalantly speed past a line of stalled cars (in either direction)
