LEOs,
The vehicle collision report on my collision of 13 Aug has what I would consider two significant issues.
1) An impartial witness, adult female, who parked her car behind me and put on her flashers to keep me from being run over by other drivers, was not interviewed or personal information taken down.
2) I was concussed and not particularly coherent, and the statements taken down by the officer reflect that, and were used to hang the main responsibility on me, rather than the unlicensed Indian resident.
The fact that I was cleared by the EMTs to ride my motorcycle home is a shock. I was NOT competent to ride another 18 miles on NB I880, yet the EMTs failed to recognize that, nor did the CHP officer (yes, not his lane, but I'd hope he would have had enough experience to recognize it and notify the EMTs that my refusal to transport was invalid).
All that being said, is it worth my putting together and submitting a rebuttal?
