Almost died today

[mail man]

Dang Kev, sorry to hear about this.
Godd to hear you were wearing your skid lid, and I second the comment on hanging it up in your garage...it will help you get over any inherent jitters the first time you throw your leg over a new bike.

Prayers for a good recovery out your way.

Keith

Damn Kev, really sorry that happened and I hope you heal up well.

Little shits like that really need to have something special done to them. Was probably texting while driving as if that isn't bad enough, almost kills you and runs and hides like a little pussy.

Get well brother!

Sorry to hear about your accident, Kevin. Thoughts are prayers are with you and your family.

Few things infuriate me more than reckless driving. I don't understand speeding, running stop signs/lights, or aggressive behavior on the road. It's like people don't understand they are manning a 2000 pound weapon. Now that I drive around with my little girl, it's made me even more conscious and aware - and thus, more upset. I honestly don't know what to do. I now slow down a bit at every intersection, anticipating someone flying through. I haven't driven in the far left lane in years. I turn my blinker on everywhere - residential roads, when I turn in my driveway, even parking lots (the worst - people fly through the outskirts of those things, cutting through the parking lot). Part of me thinks my cautiousness is contributing to the problem - no one wants to sit behind someone that actually stops at a stop sign. Just short of selling the car and hanging up the keys, I don't know what else to do.

I don't have any answers. Only frustrated complaints. I hope he's dealt with swiftly and justly.

Kevin, just saw this thread and I am glad to know you are overall OK. One of my riding buddies was hit by a woman who just decided to change lanes without even looking. Of course, she was on her cell phone. Hes also relatively ok but the bike is totaled.

I wish those cigars get to you really fast! Sounds like you need them but all in all, I am really glad you are ok.

Prayers for a fast recovery sent
