Today, I rode my bike to work. While biking on the road, I gave a hand signal for turning left. A car passing the opposite way veered towards me and attempted to give me a high five. I now have cuts all over my body and my bike is in two pieces. FML

That totally sucks! More bike riders should use hand signals. They don't have turn-signals on their bike like a car does. I vote its an FYL since the moron driving obviously wasn't paying attention in driver's ed.

Gripes. Hope that moron's paying for that.

#3 you're a dumb ass, it's not the guys fault, it's the driver's fault. Wow, that guy's stupid, hope you got his license plate, you can get him to pay.

I love how so many people are having troubles envisioning this. You're turning left, a driver in a car coming at you decided to rail you with a monster high five, right? What I want to know is - Did you keep your hand up, nail the high five and bust? OR did he hit you with his car, etc. Anyways, FYL for sure, and everyone saying OMF GET A CAARRRR obviously still live with their rich daddies. GFY for hand signalling, and for being brave enough to compete with cage drivers these days. So many people are too stupid to breathe on their own, yet they still get their drivers licences. As an avid motorcyclist, I've seen some serious dumbshit happen and I CAN keep up with cars and compete much better than a bicyclist could. I hope you're okay and that the driver at least stopped to make sure you weren't dead. @ Everyone saying YDI - What the shit is wrong with you? The OP was obeying laws and rules of the road, some idiot nails him and it's HIS/HER fault??? That's stupid. Haul your heads out of your asses and realize that you're not the only person on the road, and everyoned doesn't have to go out of their way to make sure YOUR driving experience is as easy and comfortable as humanly possible. OP HAD to be on the left side of the road as he/she was turning LEFT. Woulda been a LOT stupider to try to turn left from the biking lane (if any), as they're usually on the RIGHT side of the road. Share the road and stop being retards.

#144, there can be major injuries if bikes ride on sidewalks too. Unless you expect them to only go 5 mph... When I rode my bike to school, I still used the sidewalk because I didn't feel safe riding where there wasdno bike lane, no one was on the sidewalks, and thorns in some places would give me flat tires.

The only people who are getting pissy at bicyclists are probably fat lards who don't feel like getting a bike of their own. They're good for the environment and healthy for you. Plus it's less likely to cause long-term damage if you run over someone. xD And OP, I hope the bastard at least stopped.

Well you can't leave someone hanging, that's just good manners.

and i agree with # 151, keep riding that bike!

If the planet get's too polluted we all die... then given 10k years the earth is restored to it's former glory and there is virtually no sign that we were ever here. It's a win win! =D So, all you tree huggers... get a car, shut up, and pretend you're saving the planet.
