This is how stupid some ppl are:
I got off work and was driving home. Got to a set of lights to turn left. Car was in front already well into the intersection. I was more that two bike lengths away in the outer tire tread. The facking broad, puts her car into reverse and guns it backward. Only thing i had time to do was hit the horn. She hit the bike and i stalled out. She drove up onto my tire and the back of her car lifted up and she still didn't see me. I pounded on her trunk and put a couple of dents in it before she even realized i was there and pulled forward. I got really lucky, she wanted to keep it out of insurance. I told her that was fine. The shop checked out the wheel forks, etc and pulled off the tire, everything is still true. Need new front fender, which is on back order and i prob won't get it back till the end of the season. Price 172.45 plus tax and 1 hour labour for checking over bike and doing fender. The priceless part is the fact that i already had a huge chunck out of the back of the fender and now it'll be shinny and new. Thanks god she didn't have a 1/2 ton truck!!!!
