I never rest when stopped till one vehicle behind me has stopped first. I flash my lights continually when one is approaching and I am stopped. Also having a strobe brake light is a good thing.
Sorry to hear that. My wife and I were broadsided on our bike a few weeks ago. Totaled the bike. My wife has a broken left shoulder and broken left foot. Came real close to her losing her leg from knee down but she's past that now. Her foot still has 6 months recovery and leg about a year. The woman that hit us ran a stop sign and came through 2 lanes of stopped traffic and hit us going the other way. She has the Illinois state minimum insurance of $25,000. After all of this we are done riding also.
