You are lucky not to be hurt and was able to catch the drunk a****** who shouldnt be allowed to drive ever again. A lady driving without license and insurance turned left into me and smashed my leg. Somehow I didnt have any major injury but the cops didnt catch her till nearly 2 weeks later.

My advice, look into buying a helmet cam to give yourself evidence in case this stuff happens again. I have a Drift Ghost action cam and it helped my prosecuting attorney get a guilty plea from the lady who hit me and gave her no way of walking out of this kind of situation.:thumbup:

Always sit in gear at the lights... It's bad it happened but hopefully others will take head, always be vigilant... These guys will kill you when you least expect it.

I've had to jump up between two cars to avoid getting hit from behind. Until I see a vehicle come to a complete stop behind me, I keep my eyes peeled, first gear engages, and periodically flash my motodynamics led tail light. This piggybacks on another current thread, RIDE LIKE YOU'RE INVISIBLE.

Sorry it happened, but glad injuries and damage were minimal AND you got police to get the guy!:Slap:
