Yeah, crashing sucks. Especially that split second that seems to last much longer where you know you're gone and can't do a thing about it, just waiting for the impact.

The driver didn't see me and didn't flee. With the rain visibility may not have been the best, but it's funny how cyclists seem to see all these things.
Did you ever consider that perhaps those things weren't so difficult to see after all, and that perhaps she just wasn't taking due care. As far as didn't flee goes, I've witnessed plenty of "accidents" where the driver hung around, and most of the time I got the impression from them that they were only hanging around to try to avoid an additional charge for leaving the scene. I also suggest that you remember that the one who added the bullbar to the front of the vehicle (or at least decided to purchase a vehicle with a bullbar) was also the driver.

Either way, I hope you heal fast and well.
