Dude, your ok and that's great to hear!!!!! I had a similar situation happen to me when I lived in Bakersfield except I was even luckier then you. As a pickup truck turned right in front of me contacting my left side, my left arm by chance hooked onto his passenger side mirror taking me and my bike around the turn and down the street at speeds up to 45 while I fought to keep the bike upright and against the truck! About a block down the road he slowed down to 5mph so I get free then he sped off. No damage whatsoever to the bike or me. The cops could've cared less. But I got my revenge when I spotted the truck in a parking lot at a small shopping center about an hour later...I removed the mirror on his passenger side, then left a note saying if he wanted to talk to me about his mirror to call me and gave him my phone number!!! He never called!
