Default Friend seriously injured in accident

So a good friend of mine was in a pretty bad accident yesterday on his way to school. He was just traveling through a green light when a car turned in front of him, causing him to fly off his bike and hitting another car. He was wearing a helmet which saved his life. Overall it could have been worse but he has a broken femur, wrist, tore all the skin off his knee and the bone. Bunch of deep cuts and bruises. Just wanted everyone to be extra careful out there as this could be any one of us. Keep him in you prayers and here is a picture of his bike after the wreck.

sorry to hear about your friend man. hope he is doing well. after reading that it kinda seems like they were blaming it on your friend even though it wasnt his fault.

yea they def wrote the story like it was his fault, however the other guy only got cited for failing to yeild. They wanted to interview my friend but obviously he just wasnt up to it.

oh man, wish him the best...asidari, i thought the same thing when reading the first article but the second said the guy pulled out in front of him....the car turned left in front of him...he got a ticket for failure to yield while turning left....

i have to say it...after our discussion about gear....this is yet ANOTHER reason to always wear gear...no helmet and it could have been worse...wearing some more gear...might have been less severe...

glad he's okay...everywhere be aware...take care!

hey now, i am not saying everything is fine, but that's a helluva lot better and a step in the right direction over "dumb bike sped up and hit a car making a turn...

at least there is SOME acknowledgment that he was at felt....believe you me, i am not defending this a-hole....but at least give partial credit to the fact they didn't let the guy go acting like he did nothing wrong...

and ranger...every time i see that damn avatar i stare...like i am waiting for them to pop out or something...and i know they never will....haha...
