Accident Cause Poll

Buicks are extremely dangerous as are tag sales. Combine the two and you can kiss your a$$ goodbye. Bicycles are also a big problem. Not the bicycle itself, but the incompetent auto drivers who can't pass the bicycle without going entirely into the oncoming lane.
 
The Last one was sand/refective paint dust on the roadway. I didn't even see it, so some stupidity is involved, and a lowside. Just washed the front end.

2 Other "Scrapes" were MY fault. Plain and simple. I hope I'm learning.

If you live to talk about it the 100 mile an hour crash is the better story. I went off on a backroad in NC at about 110. Bruised and battered kneecap exposed had to hop down the road for about ten minutes before someone came by and picked me up. Six weeks in the hospital, that's the short version. Temporary stupidity cat.
 
Enzoso... hell yeah thats a better story.... I'm glad you told it but I'm even more glad I'm just reading it, lol... glad you're still around though man, that must've been a narly crash!

Ct Duc... haha... couldn't agree with you more man.... Buicks are a huge problem.... HUGE! haha
 
Tried to do a burn out at age 18 on my Kawasaki. I didn't lean into it enough and the bike came up. I had a choice: Romance with a Cadillac or kiss the pavement. The pavement won. I was accessorized by road rash for a couple of weeks and a nice, swollen knee.

Living in L.A., however, I can't tell you how many close calls I have on a daily basis. Chick/ guy on cell phone or blue hair without a clue seem to have some type of radar or something pointed in my direction.
 
Doing a Y turn at walking speed I go to put my left foot down so I could back it up. The pantleg catches on the peg and Wham. ......... Idiot ...........
