Biker must have been unhurt as he sped away? Good that you did right thing but he sure didn't!
Not sure if you have opted in for overnighter but even if your ride isn't ready by then, happy to pick you along.
Happy driving ![Smile](https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.png) (I know you drive safe so didn't need to mention!) |
Yes the biker was unhurt.
Thanks for your offer to drop. I drove back in my dads car and using it here for now. Quote:

Were you able to swerve into the divider because it did not have the railing? I am wondering if the railing was present, what could have been the outcome! Brake hard perhaps?

I had an accident one year ago when a 2 wheeler suddenly veered in front of my car. Now when I drive through the highways, I am really weary of villagers in 2 wheelers popping out suddenly through medians. Once again, the importance of wearing seatbelts was proved. Seatbelts save lives. Please belt up friends,always. |
I agree the seatbelts saves life and I have experienced it now. Quote:

Anyway, it's bad enough, and not a nice way to start the new year.
At least something good came of it! |
Starting the year with a bang :-) Just looking at the positives! Quote:

Really saddenning to see the ride. Your's was one of the most well maintained cars that I know of in the close circles.
The damage looks monstorous from the list you have made. Lot of money and time would be wasted around. Hope there is no significant damage to the chassis and underbody.
I am happy that you were unscathed. Good things happen to good people. God bless man. Hope you and your car recovers soon from the trauma. Keep us posted on the final outcome of the repair. |
Thank you, Soumyajit for the commiserations. I too feel bad that my ride ended up in this thread. Quote:
