Guy cuts across my lane to make a turn and takes me out.

 

Whoa! At least you're ok enough to take and post pics. Yeah. People on phones while driving really **** me off. I can understand if you're talking real quickly to find directions or other important things, but most people talk on the phone just to talk and do it for the entire ride. I mean. Come on. Other people's lives are at stake and you risk not only yours but theirs as well by talking on the phone just because you found a sale at the mall and bought 5 pairs of jeans for under $500.

 

+1. california banned talking on cell phones while driving a few weeks ago. i still see tons of these numbnutz chatting away while driving though

 

If I saw someone driving while talking on their cell phones, I would definitely call the police and see if they couldn't intercept them somewhere and cite them!

 

Dam man you alright?

 

Damn Bryan! First of all,glad your alive.

Im sure your upper body is ok, but did you get any road rash on ur legs? Cause everytime you come up to the shop, your geared up.

 

The officers didn't want me to get up and I was sent to the ER via ambulance but the only thing wrong was a broken collar bone, some road rash on my hand, and a nasty cut on my leg from where it hit the guys fender well. My gear kept me from getting really hurt for the second time.

Just picked the bike up today. I had not seen it since the accident. It doesn't look like it will be to hard to fix. 8 weeks and ill be back on the road

 

^Glad you're in one piece man, sorry about your accident.

I thought TX put a law against cell phone use while driving, I could be wrong does anyone know for sure.

 

I once got hit by a lady as I was walking into a blockbuster. She was on her phone, did not even look back as she reversed.

 

damn... im looking to pick up a bike soon and people are going down left and right. wish you a speedy recovery to get back on the "horse". safe riding brother

 

did they catch the fool?

 

Yeah he didnt get anywhere.

some befor pics

 

I would still get one but you do have to be smart out there.

 

Dang, that's sucks. I hate seeing people who don't pay attention to the roads.
Especially to bikers. Whenever I see a bike, I give them as much room as possible. I change as many lanes as I possibly can.

Glad to see that you're not too badly injured. Hope to see you back to 100% soon.

 

Man good to hear you're alive and ok! When I had my bike I hated that too. That and the freaking soccer mom's in the SUV's

I'm sure that guy got a ticket but did you cuss him out at least? I would've been fired up if I was in your shoes and got up police instructions or not. But that's just me.

Again good to hear you're ok.
