I got hit by a god damn car on my bike - General

What does not kill you only makes you stronger Happy Birthday

God, I was hit by like 5 cars on my bike as a kid. They alway pull out of their driveway like maniacs. Weird thing is, at least for me, landing after being hit always hurt more than being actually hit by the car. Anyway, get better man.

[QUOTE=NoobSauce;29180000] [img_thumb]http://i55.tinypic.com/nmkny0.png[/img_thumb] I made a huge ass dent on the side of the car. Things I'm pissed off at: 1:My bike is shit 2:My leg is in even more shit 3:I have to use crutches to get around. 4:Next week is my birthday and I got hit by fucking a car. Facepunch,I asked for your sympathy...[/QUOTE] by the look of that diagram, it looks like he should've been giving way to you. [editline]16th April 2011[/editline] sue him!

Ask for a new bike for your birthday if your current one is in shit now. Sounds like a good excuse for an upgrade. Hope your leg gets better soon.

[QUOTE=GoDong-DK;29189452]Fair enough, but your post was begging it.[/QUOTE] That's begging the question.

The person behind the guy who pulled back pushed his car? That's fucking dumb. Hope you recover soon, OP. [QUOTE=Danny.B;29186708]Could anyone please explain me why do people ask for sympathy on a video games forum ? And it's not this one isolated case,there are many of them around in GD.[/QUOTE] This forum isn't just for video games, y'know.

[QUOTE=BrQ;29189032]dont cycle on the sidewalk trust me i cycle to school for 7 years now or so[/QUOTE] I'd rather not be cycling a foot from cars that are going 40-50 mph

OP, watch out. Just because you're on a bike and you think you're legally invincible because you aren't in a car, remember that you are also riding a vehicle down a sidewalk at unsafe speeds and should always have ample time to brake should an obstacle appear. What if there was a pedestrian walking out from the other side of the car? You could've hit them if the car didn't move up. Practice more caution.

This is supposed to be a place of discussion, not sympathy and blogs.

Your drawing is confusing, why do you have a huge empty space for the road but crop the car out of the picture

Get a blog.

[QUOTE=JDK721;29193965]I'd rather not be cycling a foot from cars that are going 40-50 mph[/QUOTE] ok so you'd rather be endangering yourself and pedestrians by riding on a sidewalk if you are a foot away cycling on the road you are a. fairly safe, and b. riding legally.

[QUOTE=VaSTinY;29194697]Get a blog.[/QUOTE] Yeah. God forbid someone discuss a topic which doesn't fit into any other forum in General Discussion!

This happened to me when I was first starting to drive [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3677532/bikecrash.jpg[/img] That was the day I learned that just because you do what the stoplight says doesn't mean you won't crash into someone

[QUOTE=Treybuchet;29194704]ok so you'd rather be endangering yourself and pedestrians by riding on a sidewalk if you are a foot away cycling on the road you are a. fairly safe, and b. riding legally.[/QUOTE] lol except it's not endangering myself or pedestrians the sidewalk is pretty wide, and not often are there a bunch of people using it [QUOTE=Treybuchet;29194704]if you are a foot away cycling on the road you are a. fairly safe[/QUOTE] no, not really. bicyclists riding on the road get killed all the time by cars. if I ride on the sidewalk I'm pretty far away from traffic and unless someone veers of the road I should be fine.

that sucks OP, hope you're ok

I once was driving down to home then suddenly the sidewalk is stopping my tyre i try to stop but then i make a frontfilp and almost got run over by a car

shit happens..

[QUOTE=JDK721;29194998]did you get a ticket? I'd assume you're at fault in that situation[/QUOTE] Nope Weren't no cops around

Don't look at it as a bad thing. If your birthday is in a week, the sympathy you gained form the accident will net you more presents.

Where did this happen? This sounds a LOT like something that happened outside my house...

Why the fuck are you riding a bike on the sidewalk? Aren't you supposed to ride them on the road, you know, where you can't accidentally slam into pedestrians around corners?

My mate got hit by a car. I laughed.

[QUOTE=Roxas2007;29192506]That's begging the question.[/QUOTE] Per se, it's seems like you're being defensive.. and might I add, that I'm certain that you do not realize what parameters you're using? .. and now that i think of it, I think Hitler might have uttered those precise works, as described in the 869 page report made by the Beaufort Commision the 19. of July 1981.
