I had an accident commuting yesterday :(

I was heading into DT San Jose down Santa Clara St, going around 22mph or so.

An SUV heading in the opposite direction made a left through a gap in the traffic to get to a parking lot.

Unfortunately, I was right there when he did it and slammed into the passenger side of his SUV.

I broke my clavicle (collar bone) all the way through. It is VERY painful, since the 2 bone pieces want to overlap. However to heal correctly, they should not overlap. I have some straps holding my shoulders back to stretch out the bones.

This really sucks I won't be riding for quite a few weeks.
