Subject: OT - Another bad break for a cyclist
Typing real slow as my left hand's in a splint with my middle fingers
taped together. Broke a bone in my hand after a driver attacked me
and threw me down on my bike (bent my seatpost as well!). Should be
better in about a month - not a bad break, no surgery needed thank
god.
He cuts me off, I yell at him that I had right of way, he gets out of
truck, grabs me (while I'm walking away with both hands on handlebars
and 25 pounds in my backpack so I'm defenceless) and throws me to
ground. I try to get plate number so he pushes me to ground again and
drives away.
He couldn't be traced so cops can't do a thing. I may have a claim
against the Criminal Injuries Compensation Board.
Incident happened Friday, went to hospital Sunday and yesterday got
temporary cast off and got fitted for splint.
Still working, with a Metropass, riding transit and walking.
Can ride again next Monday.
Taking camera with me to work now, so that's a good thing!
;-)
cheers,
frank
