WORRIED...SCARED...SIGHS

Judy

I'm sure the police are familiar with this kind of scenario where drivers don't see the bike rider.  The thing is it would have been better to call the police and report the accident no matter what the lady was saying.  I'm afraid I learned that the hard way also.  Same situation only I hit a car coasting out of my parking lot. There was NO damage to her car and she was fine. It was a very light bump. A month later my insurance company calls me telling me she has over 10k damage to her car and medical bills to cover.  WHAT??  But by then there was no way to prove it wasn't me that caused the damage.  Hard lesson learned.  Make sure you report the guy who hit your car so the police won't think the damage is from you hitting the bike.

The lady probably went home and her significant other told her to file a police report to ensure that your insurance would pay for her bike.  Often when we look we see what we EXPECT to see rather than what is really there.  If we are the least bit distracted or in a place that we go on a routine basis it it worse.  Don't be afraid, be careful and watchful.  The damage to your car was reported so that it could be fixed.  The same for the biker.  Just because the accidents happened close together doesn't mean anything.  It just happens.  It was good of the man who hit your car to report it - many won't.  Take a deep breath - and let the insurance handle it, that is what you pay them for.
