Default i got hit last night, up date pics

last night on my way home from work i got rear ended when i went to make a left hand turn. i was slowing down, going about 12 mph, when someone slamed into the back of me. i could tell that it was a bike because i didnt get run over. when i stoped roling i herd a siren and thought that a cop had saw what happened. i did a quick self check, wiggle fingers and toes, my left hip and ankel hurt pretty bad but i knew i could move. when i looked up i saw a police motorcycle laying in frunt of me. then i looked back and saw an oficer laying on his stomach, i yelled to him to see if he was ok. his eyes were openbut he didnt say any thing. buy then people were yelling at my to lay still and not move.
i got pretty lucky, just a sprained ankle brused hip and some road rash on my arm. the bike is messed up to say the least. they would not let me touch any thing and my bike is at the police impound now. parts were laying all over the street so im expecting the worse. like i sed i was going like 12 mph getting redy to make my turn and my bike landed about 60ft. downthe road.
any way here is the story from the paper.

Sounds like you're pretty lucky. Quite a story--keep us informed of how it all plays out--I'm interested to hear what comes of it--being rear-ended by a police officer and all!

How are you feeling this morning? The day after an incident can be rough--physically and psychologically.

its hard to say how fast he was going my guess would be like 45-50 but idk. i didnt even know he was behind me, and i have no idea why he would have been pulling me over. i will post some pics as soon as they let me see my bike.
im realy sore, cant walk, but i will live. i hope i dont get f'ed over cuz he is a cop

Wow! That’s crazy! I hope you heal up well. I don’t think the pit maneuver is a good idea to try on a bike. I wonder if the cop will ever remember what happened. I dont think you will be blamed for anything, but you never know. Good luck with all of it.

And to you! Geez, cut the guy a little slack...

So are you just left hanging, waiting to hear back from the police?
