Have you ever been hit by a oblivious motorist while riding your bicycle?

And THAT would be why all people over the age of 50 should be required to take a driving test, written exam, and eye exam every 2 years.

Not during my mountain bike days but as a kid it happened a few times. Bloody Choppers and their gear stick!

what a strange question to ask, but no.\ni was hit by a car once. i'm ok, though.\ni was also hit with a shopping cart at walmart and was knocked senseless for 5 minutes, that hurt worse than the car, because it chipped my tooth. i had to go to the dentist because of it.

Has this actually happened to you?

Basically they are terrified of riding on the road, and the risk (slight) of being booked is far less than the risk (high) of being hit by a vehicle.\n\nMost of us use risk management in our lives so maybe we shouldn't get so mad when somebody by doing that pisses us off.\n\nAlso, and without proof, but I wouldn't mind betting, a lot of parents say to their children"Yes you can go out on your bike. . but STAY OFF THE ROAD"

ONE- I think that if you wadded up a 600cc then you still haven't learned how to ride.  A literbike will simply make you a Squid smear.\n\nTWO- Maybe you should have worn a helmet when you had your last crash, since it seems to have jumbled your brain and made you post your MOTORCYCLE question under the BICYCLING category.

No but I was reading a story of a fellow who got bit by one.

I was driving up to an intersection, about to take a left onto my street, as three tall skinny guys on inline skates came skating up the block... each similtaneously supporting and hanging on to one other for dear life. \n\nEach of them had black hair, and each wore a long black leather trenchcoat. And they might have looked a little dangerous if it wasn't for the fact that they were wobbling and weaving all over the place, looking every bit like an accident moments away from happening.\n\nMy son, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked up at me and said, "now there's something you don't see every day!" :)

I would stop and give my name and phone number to the person that was the victim, many times we think something is clear as a bell but, it is not and many people will try anything these days to get out of trouble. Injuries that show up later are real and in some cases the person in the vehicle has actually turned around and sued the pedestrian for damaging their car.

Yes, when I was 5 years old and I was trying to cash in some rocks I thought were gold, so I kept running across the street and then this guy came out of nowhere and hit me.  He took me home and sped off.  I am ok now, but I guess he was afraid I was seriously hurt.

No, its not just you.  I've been known to flip them off.  It provides me with some, albeit little, justice for what they did.\n\nI would never intentionally cause someone to have an accident though.  I think W has caused enough death, I really don't need to add to it.  And its a sad day in America when I have to move to Canada because of the imbeciles that are ruining this country.

Their idiots.I see people ride their bikes in major intersection with a lot of trafic going 45 mph with no bike lanes and expect every driver to slow down for them.I have to hit my brakes because the idiot is between my moving car and a parked car on the side.I probably wouldn't feel sorry if I hit them.Are bicyclist required to walk their bikes across the intersection instead of riding them across without stopping?I mean if I make a right turn and a bicyclist came out of nowhere because they weren't paying attention to traffic and I hit them, I probably wouldn't fell sorry.
