[TnT]

I still can't believe you didnt fall when you crashed at 80 kmph..!

Lucky that you got out in one piece... Careful re anna... !

LOL @ guy sitting on tank.. he must've been like wtf

[ragGZ_]

Some thing wrong with my calender sense...I wanted this meet to be on sunday..but I dont know why I said it on 19th.

@Ragz!!!

Whom to blame!!! You or ZMA???

my last girl friend had this ego problem cos i give more importance to my bike than my girl. It's neither me or my ride but i am sure its some small thing that i am not able to figure out. Honestly it also depends on the credibility of the mechanics in Hyderabad who are not able to figure out. Hyderabad has the worst of the mechanics in regards to any bike above 220CC (or probably i have not come across one, never had any such issues when in Pune)

i know its not an SBK but its just not metal, its more than a metal to me!!

@yaseer bhai - my e-mail is [email protected] (add me on im if possible)

[furioussphinx]

had an accident .. a crashed into a person on tankbund at 80kmph

luckly didnt fall ..visor crashed , fairing cracked ,

i didnt have any injuries .. for more details contact rahul or tejus

Good thing your safe. Weird, today seems to be an accident day. Another friend of mine had an accident too. And just when I thought the day was over, i had one in my car. Banged into a kid riding a cycle. The damn kid was crossing the road without looking back. i was speeding too. I kept on honking and literally stood on my breaks. Banged into the kid and thankfully the kid was scratch less or else I would have had to get a few thrashings along with hospital bills. My car got a scar on its hood

Moral of the story : Avoid speeding even though you are in control and get better tires.

Ouch, that was close!

Funnily, I had an accident today too while going to the Yamaha showroom (my bike coming next week yayyyyy), but very small accident compared to what happened to you guys .. I banged into a bus that stopped suddenly because one idiot auto guy cut across his path. Headlight glass broken, and my head light now shines only till 2 metres from my bike, like its looking down now..

The after effects of Sept 11? My car calls for another touch up.

This is what bugs me. ALL the accidents I have are ALWAYS because of some lame idiot and we have to bear the grunt. These people dont even have basic road sense, or even better, not even a speck of common sense. Footpaths, zebra crossings, footover bridges, signals, safety etc can never make their way into these people's heads. They will learn only the hard...my bad, am sure they still wont.

I had many encounters on my bike and cars. Now imagining my present bike (which is always zipping through at mind boggling speeds) bang into someone gives me goosebumps as am sure, I will have broken bones and the person I bang into will be serious.

[TnT]

... and the person I bang into will be serious.

Not to mention, he will be seriously injured too :P


I think that once in a while, a small 'oh shit' moment is needed to jolt me out of my reverie.. I keep daydreaming even in heavy traffic because I'm so used to it now...(really bad habit but I don't know when I start doing it!!!) But have managed to stay accident free till today.. bah there goes the perfect record ..!

Any one else face this problem of day dreaming while riding? Sad part in my case is, I was dreaming about my future ride that I'm gonna get in a few days.. irony up the ***

[riazmomin]

Great....So today is an accident day. I missed mine though.
Blinded by Highbeams from oncoming traffic, I almost went into huge crater in the middle of the road (Road connecting the JBS Signal & Tivoli Theatre), Again Sand (Remember I already fell twice because of sand on road) was completely speard on the road, So I was not too hard on the brakes. Gained control well before entering the crater else I would have banged into RTC bus or fall into crater. Its was almost 3mts wide

Ny how..Good that you are safe SAM. BTW 80kmph on Tankbund on Satruday...Not a nice combination.

[TnT]

Riaz anna is that the crater near the divider? I don't know when they will repair it. Seems to me that its capable of launching a rider from one side to the other over the divider.. ! Thank God you (and all of us) are safe!!


Anyone else?!

Check this too

Ashwin....he is from hyd who is now in delhi. not many know him i have met him couple of times

Hey people, just came home from the hospital today.

On the 29th, I was riding at about 75 km/h on the approach road to my college. I skidded over some sand and took a spill, hitting a few cars parked on one side of the road and ending up with a major accident. My left foot was pointing right but the knee was left and the whole leg felt limp. My thigh felt like it was on fire. Thankfully, my friends were waiting for me outside and immediately put me in one of their cars and took me to a nearby hospital.

I blanked out and went hysterical. Since coming to Delhi in July, I'd unfortunately picked up a smoking habit that only my friends knew about. So thanks to the withdrawal symptoms, I was under the impression that my family is the head of a ruthless mafia and protecting me from people trying to steal my kidneys.

Anyways, I had broken my tibia (shin) and femur (thigh). They operated on my shin and inserted a metal rod and some interlocking screws. However when the opened my thigh, they discovered I had nicked a blood vessel and I was spurting blood. They treated this and stitched me up. I spent the night under anesthesia while my uncle went hunting all over Delhi for four units of AB+ blood. After a few days of paranoia and blood transfusions, I was in the ICU of a bigger and better hospital. I was told about my situation and saw my aunt, uncle, parents, brother, and cousin looking worried. I had had a pulmonary embolism, meaning fat had entered and blocked the main artery of my lungs. I was in danger of facing collapsed and even failed lungs.

The doctors put me on a BiPAP (Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure) to help me breathe better and the embolism disappeared in a few days. I then had surgery on my thigh, where a plate was inserted to keep the bone set. Upon waking from anesthesia, I felt like my leg was on fire internally, heat from the plate and my blood getting back into circulation.

A few days later, I was shifted to the general ward from the ICU. I was monitored there and given IV drips and antibiotics. The day I was to be discharged, there was some issue with the antibiotics. They had to be changed and I was monitored with fever, so the doctors would not leave me. My white blood cell count was at 20,000 but the cutoff was 11,000.

Two days later, after no fever and a WBC count of 12,500, I was discharged. That was yesterday. Ten days in the ICU (of which two were life-threatening), five days in the general ward, and 3 lakhs of my parents' money later, I came home to my uncle's flat yesterday afternoon. I cannot put pressure on my left leg for five months. That means using a walker until the stitches come out in two weeks, and then crutches when I have developed enough strength and agility.

My leg is still swollen from the surgery and I find it very tiring to keep it in the air while I walk with the walker. I also find using the bathroom very difficult. Peeing is made easy with me using a jug and someone emptying it into the toilet, but for passing motions I've been on a bedpan. Hopefully from tomorrow I can walk up to the toilet and get back to normal on that mark.

Point is, I learned the danger of driving at high speed even on roads you know well. Even when you're doing everything right, things can go wrong. I had on my helmet (otherwise I'd have died on the spot), a jacket, jeans, and shoes. I only wish I had invested in knee and leg guards. Perhaps the fractures would have only been bad sprains or hairline fractures. The blood vessel may not have been cut and I may not have needed the risk of blood transfusion.

I say to all bikers... you can never be too careful. Perhaps my tyres were too bald... perhaps my forks were not aligned. Maybe fate had that accident in store for me since the day I was born. Perhaps this was destined. Perhaps the black 150cc TVS Apache manufactured at Hosur with chassis no. ending in 334 was made for this purpose. Whatever it may be, accidents can happen regardless of how safe or how much of an expert we may be. They can be minor or severe like mine. I shudder to think if my dad had acceded and bought me the secondhand 600cc I had asked for. What if I'd been doing 120 instead of 75?

The bike has minimal damage. Broken crash guard, broken left-front indicator, shattered panels, and bent forks. I am in a much worse condition. I know this is some point in my karmic cycle, but I also know God saved me from a more painful episode, or even death. God also saved me in the ICU. He is Great.

Be careful. Ride safe. Ride safer.

And i too missed an accident today at KPHB (thx to an idiotic Volvo driver who cut me off)

Whats happening today? I've been hearing sad/bad news for the past 3 hrs
