Re:Biker Angels Saved Me 5 Years, 3 Months ago  
Thirty years ago, I was T-boned while crossing an intersection while in my 1972 Fiat 124 Sport Coupe. A Chevy Impala ran a red light and hit me on the passenger side. Fortunately, after the initial impact (which smashed the passenger door all the way in to my shifter), my car was pushed aside. The police were on the scene immediately and when they searched the Impala, they found baby Miller bottles all over the front seat. I wasn't injured and walked away, although my car was totaled. Ever since, I NEVER assume that any vehicle will stop for a red light!

Thanks for sharing.

Well I will be honest I really don't mind the cameras because I'm not doing anything they would catch me at. On the funny side I found out the 19 yo that hit me lives in the same town I do (we were in another town when it happened) he has the same insurance, he has the same agent AND he lives one block over from me. He is that lttle assxxxx that keeps ripping down my street in the Dxxm yellow car all the time. He even had the guts to tell the agent his light was green even when the cop gave him a ticket with two witnesses that said he ran it. Some will never lean. His car is totaled my truck isn't to bad will take two weeks to fix and I have to drive Granprix. Hate that car like I am drive a go cart. I wanna ride my bike instead.

I hear ya Curt.

Got rear-ended by a 17 yr old and his bud some time back. Lil buzzard ran and told Mommy and Daddy he got hit at the mall. I found the car the next day at the local high school. You should have seen him.... he was pissed cause I took pictures of his car and took paint samples from it. Needless to say, he got his due.

Gotta watch all angles when you ride guys n gals. NEVER let your guard down for an instant.
