thanks, no damage to the dumbass tho, i never made contact with him, he just caused the accident by cutting in front of me, so in court more than likely it will stand as wreckless driving on his part as the cause of the accident

he drove off cuz he didnt think he did anything (dont mind the bike sliding past your passenger side, or the horns blaring, or the HUMAN BEING flying behind your car in the street. lol

i just hope i’m covered. i don’t have collision on the bike because it was paid off in full, so if i want to see any $$$ i’m going to have to go after his insurance, or if thats not possible i’m going to threaten to sue.

short sleeves, shorts, a a skull cap helmet…idk how people do it and think they’ll be ok if anything happens…
