Subject: [dc-cycles]  Bike knocked over, got plate#, CALL COPS

Do not do anything else until you call the cops... which I assume are DC.
You want a  police report and then you want someone to look over the bike
verrrry carefully.

Get the name of the officer that you give the report to.  Follow-up and
don't be lazy about it.

Some knuckelhead knocked mine over years ago.... didn't look like much....
but the handlebars bent JUST ENOUGH FOR ME TO notice on long ride....
"Didn't hear anything  enough for me to notice it." yeah right he didn't
notice the nice big bright red paint all over his bumper.

You think there is no damage.... I'll bet there is more than you see. There
was on mine.


My spidey senses were tingling..just enough so the
guy in a  gray\silver Chrysler Sebring...license plate YFV-5523 backed
into my bike.  By some fluke no damage except for a scuffed stator
cover.    Anything I can do here? Anyway of getting the
address?

Thanks

Yes, you should call the police, and your deductible shouldn't even
apply, since you're not at fault.  right?  or even if your ins co says
your deductible would count, then instead, you should contact his
insurance co directly so that it won't count, and let them pay you
directly.
