Utah Drivers...

Well it only took Davin, what?, two weeks before his first wreck? Thank goodness he had no broken bones! Some idiot Utard driver ran a stop sign, then stopped in the middle of the intersection, and then decided to go forward again. Davin had slowed down but the bike was still going towards the guy. So Davin laid the bike down and slid off. Since we have no insurance right now and he didn't think about needing an ambulance, Davin didn't call the cops and they just exchanged information. He only saw a gash on his right hand and went home to wash it off. He called me to come drop off the car so he could get to work. When I came home we found out that his knee and left forearm had some pretty bad road rash as well. We tried washing it (Davin was in a lot of pain) but the dirt and small rocks were not coming out. So we took him to urgent care. They took care of him and washed them up pretty good. I know I should have felt really bad for him, but I couldn't help smiling! I didn't want to say "i told you so" but smiling was good enough. So for the past few days he's been in a lot of pain. Road rash apparently hurts really bad. So, my advice to people getting bikes: get insurance, get a helmet, wear long sleeves and pants, and watch out for stupid drivers-especially in Utah!
