Horsey Hundred rider killed :(

[Crankin]

Without going into the whole story, her car didn't actually hit DH, but he slammed his brakes so hard, he did an endo in the middle of an intersection at rush hour. Hence, the broken clavicle. His bike was affected, but it would not have been noticeable to a non-rider (shifter, brake lever). Luckily, she said some really dumb things to the cop, who wrote them in the report, even though it's not part of the protocol. She also left the scene, but came back, after several witnesses went after her. The policeman told DH he would gladly testify, if supoened (his boss told him not to do anything!). He's not doing this for the $, as most of what we get will have to be used to reimburse Blue Cross for the medical bills. We will make sure this gets in the local papers, too.

Oh my Crankin, I hope some kind of resolution is reached on this soon. Yes, the entitlement issue is huge in this country and underlies a lot of crashes like this.
