No road rash, but last week I put my hand through some dude's taillight.....
It was raining and he slammed on his brakes in front of me. Even with my brakes full on, there wasn't anything I could do to stop in time and I basically rear ended him. I do not honestly remember if he pulled the pass the cyclist and slam on the brakes routine or not, though where I was he had to have passed me at some point. He did jump out of the car and yell - there was nothing I could do..... he at least stopped and asked if I was OK, but he jumped right back in the car and took off like a jack rabbit. And I was going to be perfectly willing to pay for his smashed light - heck I was the one who hit him afterall. I came out of it all pretty good. I had on long finger gloves so I just got a few small cuts on my hand and a bruise on my bicep.
