The girl survived with a broken leg but could have been a different story with a bit more pace.This sh*t happens and I never thought it would happen to me, felt like total sh*t for weeks and drive like a granny with my eyes peeled on suburban streets since.

You do tend to slow down a bit after you pick your kids up from school and see what wankers actually drive like in built up areas.Scotty

Thank god for the 10% tolerance. I'd say I was actually doing 87kmh by the time you take out the 3kmh error in the speedo.

So, I used to ride my bicycle everywhere. It would be good 15-20 min ride from home to school one way (from memory). Anyway, I got clipped on the handle bars by some hoon in a white Expensive Daewoo commodore (I think - once again, memory a bit hazy) and I went ass over head. Good thing he was wasn't going that fast (well - I really could not tell as he came up from behind but the fact that I'm here to write this probably means he was not going that fast). To this day, I don't know who it was (he drove off the head) or why he did it...
