| beat the bus and accident question Nice ride in this morning. Most of the lights went my way and I got to work in 40 minutes, 5 minutes faster than the bus/subway. And not even riding my faster bike. And for a change, no one passed me!  On the way home and SUV just had to go through the stoplight when the traffic was backed up so she was still in the intersection after the light changed. I started out to go into front of her, clipped in and then she wheeled around to try for the slow lane ... right where I would be in a millisecond. I braked to full stop while trying to turn behind her, leaving me way overbalanced to my right and of course I fell right down in the intersection breaking my pump mount with my knee and bruising my hands. My question is, should I have asked her to pay me $30 for a new pump? If she didn't could she get a ticket for leaving the scene? This question is for next time, as usual in an accident I get dumb and don't think of what I should do until later. Doug For email, a sense of wonder. |

Probably it would be good to tell the police what happened and ask them what can be done. |
