Thats fucked up man. I was all reading this and like, hmm. cool ThePrunes a tough cat. But then I read you led with your... And I have to say man. That's pretty weak. I wold toss my body in FRONT of my Fender. Not toss my Fender in front of my body.... On the serious, glad to hear your okay. That truly sucks man. If you got a license plate you should absolutely report it.
You did the equivalent of calling the police. It appears the only loss the guy suffered was that his insurance paid your medical bill. Too bad he didn't get a ticket for texting while driving. Even without witnesses, the reason to call in authority is, as you say, a video camera may have been a witness. (I'm not a fan of the legal system, but in traffic matters they are efficient.)
Damn Chris! The doctors will (or did) probably tell you that blacking out more than likely saved your life. It is instinctual when you are hit like that to tense up all your muscles, leaving your body stiff and very "breakable", but when you are passed out, or loopy(drunk) your body is flexible and rolls with things much easier and thus the force of the impact is decreased. I only know this from when I hit a girl in Colorado who was on the highway trying to kill herself and jumped out in front of me. I think we talked about it before? Anyhow, the docs told me because she was so drunk and passed out, she came out of it unharmed. Rolled over the top of my car at 50 miles an hour and didn't break a bone. and who says alcohol is bad for you? Lol.
Pick the picture that looks like the car, post the picture and address/date/time it happened on Facebook and ask everyone to share. You'll have his name in a week. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=98 honda civic green&t=ffab&atb=v35-3a_&iax=1&ia=images
Yeah, they told me that....so did the patamedics...said I was lucky I blacked out...i didn't feel anything until I hit the ground and came too...just felt like I was floating in darkness...thought I had died...i remember thinking to myself in my blackout (not sure how that's possible, but anyway) that I had died...i was like do this death...this is what it feels like...then I hit the road and came to, experiencing the most pain I have ever experienced...then fuck I'm alive...I'M ALIVE! Ouch
Your situation sounds scary as fuck. I'm pretty fortunate that things ended up the way they did. I'm feeling blessed. I'm also lucky that I was able to walk home afterwards. I feel better today actually and my knee is no longer popping or hurting much at all. They should have made Oden out of me. We would have a championship!
