Just beyond Kmart in Ephrata, I pulled into a parking lot. Only one vehicle was present, a pick up truck. I pulled off the road and answered my phone which was ringing again. It was my wife, she was asking where I was. I told her I was sitting in a parking lot and all the details when all of a sudden I got hit on my left side. This truck just hit me.
I jumped off the bike as it fell to the ground and he backed over it, my phone went flying. I started yelling. This guy hit me straight against the back of his truck as he was backing up. I don't think he even looked to see if anyone was there.
My bike has a broken hand brake, a broken left back turn signal, a bent foot brake, a broken winshield, scuffs on the muffler, and more. I am very upset (angry).
The insurance company says it sounds like it was the other guys fault and his insurance should probably take care of it. I hope so.
Yes, my leg hurts, but I'm more upset that my bike got hurt and broken all because someone didn't pay attention to what he was doing.
