    I can imagine what went through her head. ......"Like, whatever"... and that's about it.

    people reverse into me in traffic all the time while i am sitting on the bike (thank god), resulting in some panicked beeping (while driver wonders where it's coming from) and manic shuffling backwards (difficult, if your legs are short).

    hope the ducati owner gets reimbursed in full for damage to the bike, loss of time on the road and emotional distress.

    There can be no compensation sufficient to cover such unspeakable violation and emotional distress - this beautiful ducati and its owner will never be the same

    Happened to me a while ago. Little asian dude (no i'm not being racist, thats what he was, asian) who couldn't see over his own steering wheel backed over my pride and joy in a 4x4. It cost him $2700.

    Me too. Parked at the university, between the trees near the HSB, came back to find the bike on the ground with a note tucked into the seat: "Sorry, I hit your bike". That's all: no name or phone number. Smashed engine cover and brake lever. A few hunderd $. Now I park on the footpath.

    Oi, what's this "firing squad at dawn"? What did I do?

    Mind you, after reading SpankMe's account I do agree with the firing squad idea.





    p.s. it's my name, for those who are wondering what I'm on about.

    Call someplace paradise, kiss it goodbye.

    Yup - people suck sometimes. I had my bike knocked over a couple of times by vehicles. Good on ya for giving her details on.
    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

    I've had three bikes backed into. First time, the young uninsured Japanese girl who did it left a note and then paid cash for the repairs. The second time, the driver came into the bistro I was in, found me and confessed. His insurance covered that. The third time the driver had no trouble finding me. I was on the bike at the time!

    Er, yes, there's even a range of teeshirts along those lines on Trade Me. The "Dawn's" in the tee pics are way cuter and shapelier than me...

    I have met the girl named Dawn that the t-shirt was based on, and I remember seeing pics of you in the thread on turning a T shirt into a dress. I can assure you that you are just as cute and almost as shapely as the Dawn in the T shirt.
