Count me as one too. I certainly did know though. I was hit by a Dodge Ram P/U square in the back tire, stayed up, but saw nothing but a giant grill, then hit again on the seat stay throwing me over and off the road. I knew but the driver didn't. He only stopped because someone flagged him down - he was oblivious on the phone.
Condolences to the family.
