ON A BIKE - HIT BY A CAR I must have been about 10 years old, as that’s when I got my own bike. I was riding to school on a winter’s day that was fairly cloudy but if it had been raining, it wasn’t then … or not much. In those days, riding on the footpath was ‘illegal’ - one had to ‘walk’ your bike to use the paths - so to ride a bike, one had to use the road. There was a longish straight road to ride up before a right turn into the road the school entrance was on. A bit before that was a road to the left that was a fairly main road into the ‘city centre’, therefore fairly busy in the mornings for cars being driven to there. As I rode through this intersection I was suddenly knocked off my bike by a car. Thankfully the car was only going fairly slow and didn’t directly hit me - especially my legs. I remember hitting the ground and lying there for a little bit, while all manner of chaos commenced around me to find out if I was ok and helping me to my feet - all the while the driver profusely apologising for not seeing me and knocking me off my bike. After a bit of time, I walked my seemingly undamaged bike and body to school. I don’t recall going home for the day, nor spending any major time in the ‘sick bay/room’. While there was no immediately obvious injuries, it is very plausible that some had occurred - after all, I was knocked off my bike by a car. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ (Back) To… Incidents Overview Page (Back) To… “S-P-C” Site Overview Map ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ WARNING: “Self-Physi-Chiro” may make it easier for you to form positive changes within and to your health/life. “SteveKineez” ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ For whole site overview, visit … Steve “Kineez” SITE MAP Site-Wide Disclaimer and Copyright Notices
