what the fuck

[motorbyclist]

well the biker is in the wrong, but it's the driver's fault

not your fault you stopped in time at any rate, though your licence makes things difficult for you when insurance companies look for a way out

do you know the rider or is it some random guy?

[Macstar]

the guy who rear ended made it clear to me today that he was not in the wrong, and that in fact i was lieing about my bike being damaged.

he also pointed out that the guy who was reversing up the road was at fault and that i should speak to him.

now i dont know what im going to do but i do know where he works.
exept he hasnt been there since it happened.

Oh bro, the fun and games begin! Best to get some professional advice here as you don't want this other biker's insurance company chasing you or worse, the cager's.

Document everything from here on in (if you haven't already), text messages, phone conversations etc. Write down the exact words that were spoken at the time of the accident if you can still remember them.

This sucks, man
Hope you have got insurance, witness and as MacStar says, document everything.
Good luck as you may need it in your case…

I had a car reverse into me and break my front mud guard at a intersection, (the thread is missing after kiwibiker site down) anyway, long story in short:

at intersection --> he stop --> i stop --> he reverse --> hit me --> checking --> he deny the responsibility and says it’s me hit him (fucking liar) --> I called police --> police came --> two stories--> frustration --> witness came up --> problem solved --> careless driving for him --> insurance claim for me


Off the topic:
Isn’t that following rider should be riding at the different side when he’s following you? For example, if you riding right side of the road and he should be riding left side of the road? The stack formation?
I always do that when I followed someone in the traffic.

yeah but when doing corners everyone tends to take lines around and generally lose the stack until a straight bit

and i suspect that chris was a few seconds ahead




and good thing you called he cops and took a photo - bet way to get things right

[Macstar]

Ha! Word is out Chris among the bike mechnic fraternity... was surpised to hear who the rider was that hit you!

[motorbyclist]

ooooh do tell!

[Pancakes]

Dude if you haven't told them about your licence, DON'T!! Don't give them anything. People get confused when there is an obsticle in the way, who or what it is doesn't matter. You need to be able to stop in time to avoid hitting WHATEVER may be in your path, the road might just fall away to nothing due to a landslide etc.. who knows? So in the end they out-rode their stopping distance, you didn't. They must have been fixated cos if they weren't they would have stopped (or hit something) past you and given themselves a longer stopping distance.

When will people that run up otheres asses stop looking for loopholes and fess up that they left the oven on too long? The colour of your card doesn't say jack when they made a mistake and you managed not to.

I'd continue thru the courts or small claims just for the principle of it all. The sole reason of the guy trying to say it's your fault.

C'mon Mr other rider.

i was there! and it was uh... interesting. there's a bit more to the story that hasn't been posted but its not my place. Either way def not Chris's fault at all. In my opinion he did everything right, really sux considering the gsxr'r just got going again :<

[R6_kid:Me]

Chris bro, send me a PM with your cellphone number. You know i got beef with that fucktard already. I'll back you up (if not take the first swings)... also can help with lawyers etc if he doesn't change his mind.
