I am getting on my soapbox. PLEASE GET OFF THE FUCKING PHONE. STOP TEXTING AND DRIVING. PLEASE.
MY crazy Italian friend Sandra went down almost 2 weeks ago. The guy who cut her off was texting and driving.
When he realized she hit him. He came back and she said to him. No joke.
"WHEN YOU ARE DONE TEXTING CAN YOU PLEASE CALL 911"
She has survived surgery. Is now in rehab for at least 4 to 6 weeks. She propelled herself into her speedometer and crushed her pelvis. She can't use her right leg for at least 8 weeks. No driving, work etc for at least 4 months. She is a chef. The good news is she is alive.
I have visited her several times and the facility is just awesome. She is ruling the roost of course. Sandra is a character. the hard work has started and it will be a long process. Tomorrow the women ride and at the end of the ride we are going to visit her.
All 30 of us. We will rattle some windows for sure. She put this ride together. So we go visit. No excuses. Anyone who decides not to visit will deal with me. They don't want to do that. Trust me. I have a tendency to lead the rides and be the road captain.
OK. I am off the soapbox. Please tell your friends to put the f ing phone down.

I am so with you on this one!!!
It doesn't seem to matter that texting/talking while driving is illegal in the state. Assholes just abound!!!
What was his response? Anything interesting? Tell her I'm sending good thoughts her way.
She said he was clueless and surprised, taken back, I wonder if he stopped to think for at least a minute. We are thinking of keeping tire kingdom in business for awhile and throw some nails or something sharp down for everyone who is an ass towards bikers.
I'm so sorry for your friend. People need to do the right thing, and they know what it is. I don't think they'll stop, though, till something bad happens to them or someone they know.
