Forums - General Discussion - I just got hit by a car today :(

Remember when Brendon Small got hit by a car riding his bike on the wrong side of the road?

He didn't do anything wrong.  He was riding his bike, and they tried to take his life.



Then the judge ordered him and coach McGuirk to write an essay I believe. He was on the wrong side of road but I don't think that is against a law not sure. I've always heard you walk against traffic and ride bike with the flow of traffic.



my cousin got hit by a hit and run driver, and they thought she was fine, but then about a month later she had a seizure at work but she didn't go to the doctor. Then around Thanksgiving her parents went to work somewhere else and they found out she had died from another seizure when they got back.

I figure the hit and run accident must have left a blood clot in her head that wasn't detected.

That's good, must've been pretty damn scary. You'll feel worse tomorrow, at least I did when I was in a car accident.

My son was at a friends and he was apparently playing knock and run

He knocked on the door with his friend and ran...across the road straight into the side of a car.

He caught his leg between the car wheel and rim, which snapped his leg in two.

Below is the xray I bought form the hospital.

 

He spend 6 months in plaster and another 6 months learning to walk properly at which point I enrolled him in Kick boxing to help strengthen the leg.

He's now 16, almost a Black belt and from it has gained so much confidence in every aspect of his life.

So far from being a negative event I see him breaking his leg as a positive althought it was hell at the time.

 

 



Ouch!
