sorry to hear you a rough one, I know it's all in the past at this point, but I just thought I'd mention that I know how you feel after enough close calls in one day! Take it easy, and keep on watching out... I've been taken down 3 times by right hooks (over many years)... twice they had passed me in a hurry, then turned right into me, once I was passing stopped traffic at a light, and a car signaled and turned right, instantly, just as I reached the intersection. Luckily I've never really been hurt by cars, though. But a speeding school bus scared the life out of me yesterday morning on the way home by passing a very high speed with no clearance or warning... wooha.
