  • OT: Battle scars

    It's my first night home after being discharged from hospital. I was riding my Kawasaki Ninja home from work, not doing anything crazy, when some airhead soccer mum ran a red light and smashed me off my bike. Multiple fractures in my right foot, a broken knee and a delightful assortment of bruises. The doctors say my riding armour saved me from much worse injuries. I'm waiting for the pain meds to kick in so I can get back to sleep. Dammit.

    How very Mad Max of you, Targan. I'm sorry that you had an accident but I'm glad it wasn't any worse. I hope you have a complete and speedy recovery.

          A coworker told me once he was tired of people making him wear his Harley for a hat. Heal up quick!

                    I do not know if this is true in Australia, but if something like this happened here in the USA, lawyers would be camped out on your doorstep to sue said stupid lady.

                      I will most definitely be exploring my options in terms of civil action.

                        Hope you feel much better and make a full recovery.

                        I am curious if the driver that hit you was ticketed.

                          So far all she's had is a ticket for running a red light. The investigating police officers haven't returned my calls so I haven't yet updated them on my injuries.

                            Yeah, they call these lawyers "ambulance chasers" in the US. You's get you first letters from them before the insurance company got around to you.
