My ride home was the usual. Saw two bike cops going the wrong way down 3rd Ave. That's about it.
There were at least 6 ppl at the bus stop and I know 2 of them saw it all... A young guy who walks with a cane (I see him often) saw me get up off the asphalt and I saw him watching as I spoke with a cop... who turned the corner, ironically, after I had walked across the street and the lady (HA!) who hit me had pulled away, silly me, thinking she'd actually pull over...
The cop was real nice but said he couldn't do mcuh w/o the tag.

It just shocks me, though I know it shouldn't, that so often it seems people have such disregard for others...
