Survived an Almost Fatal drunk driving accident...

I was involved in a hit and run accident where a driver, who was 3x's the legal limit, struck me on my motorcycle at a light, directly from behind at approximately 45mph. Thankfully I have video evidence from a witness's cell phone of the entire thing, multiple wittiness' have made reports and believe the act was intentional, due to the vehicle accelerating into me and then through a red light of a busy intersection with crossing traffic, before immediately fleeing the scene... I originally had no reason to believe of such intentions, since there wasn't any previous altercations and I do not know the person. But after viewing video evidence, it clearly shows that it is more than likely the case...

Thankfully the car was located, along with the driver and passenger of the car. The driver has been identified and taken into custody. Possibly the passenger as well, since they were both not being cooperative at the time.



I am posting this in hopes to find some references to a good attorney in the Bay Area to represent me in my case, since this is without a doubt going to court.


Without posting more information than I should at this time, I will let you all know that I AM injured. But I am happy and fortunate to be alive. I will post pictures later, when I feel is appropriate, considering the circumstances.


Thanks in advance for your help.

Wow. Glad you are hopefully basically OK.

Some good help on the sponsor page as far as attorneys.

Sure have my interest up on the video evidence. :teeth

As much as I'm sure we're all curious, and could learn a lot, DO NOT POST ANYTHING ELSE REGARDING THIS CASE. Do not talk about it to anyone except your lawyer. Without a doubt this will be one of the first things they will tell you if/when you hire one.

Just looking out for you and your best interests.

This is one of my worst nightmares, getting rear ended at high speed.

I am very glad you are OK. Good luck putting this prick behind bars.

Sent you a PM.

Hoping you can make a full recovery, but damn, that is terrifying (and one of my biggest fears when stuck at a light by myself on my bike).

Another one for Angela and Scotty Storey. They have been my attorneys for years and I have nothing but great things to say about them.

Heal up Rider.

So glad you survived; sounds like a miracle.

Hopefully the DA can get an attempted murder cases against that guy with the video evidence.

Best of luck to you moving forward.

Hopefully the perp has some assets.

Glad you are still breathing.
As said by someone else, don't discuss anything about the case.
