my son was in a serious motorcycle accident last night!. he was heading up a hill, and this gal coming out of a parking lot. she saw him, hesitated and pulled forward anyway. he t-boned her right into the passenger window. his face/helmet broke the window, it broke his face mask and cracked the chin guard (he wears a full face). then he hit the car with his torso and legs and finally fell to the ground in a sitting position. she couldn't see him as he was actually behind the car at the time. many bystanders came as he sat on the ground. he said he did the initial "ok neck? does it roll?" and worked on that and did the touching fingers to the ends of his thumbs, and then toe wiggling. he said all these folks were getting quite frantic as he was not answering any questions, then finally calmly said; "ok internal inventory reported in satisfactorily. yes I hurt like hell, but I am ok." by that time the driver came to check on him completely ashen faced, she was convinced he was dead. the cops and medicos got there at the same time. they insisted on sitting him in the back of the ambulance and running the vitals which checked out ok. he refused transport and went home last night. he texted me a little while ago and is headed to the Doc. he said no tickets were issued. I told him that that would almost certainly change, it was not uncommon for info to be written down and then followed up.
he thinks his Harley is toast. the forks are twisted, and the air vent was completely pullled from the frame. this kid has been blown up twice, and shot twice, boy he takes a lickin;! (and I am soooo relieved!)
