Are you ok? Physically? I’m going to guess not so hot mentally.

Yeah I got a few scrapes on both hands and a bit on my right leg. I’m fine mentally too, luckily I reacted fast enough and only the bike got damaged. I was shook after but now I’m fine

Yes, but you said on purpose? What was the purpose?
hermionegranger · 4 years ago
Yeah apparently the car was waiting for a while, I went to say goodbye to some people and went back on the bike when I turned to go back (I am visiting in Texas) to the house the car turned on and sped as fast as possible, I heard it and went to the side, but it followed and hit the back of the bike. I threw myself off and landed on the pavement and rolled onto the grass. Thankfully the injuries are minor.

Oh! I thought you had gotten hit on purpose. Well I am glad you’re ok. Sorry that person was a dick!

Yeah after they hit me they sped off and it was too dark to see their license plate.

Do you have any enemies? Who knew you were going to leave and ride your bike? Any visual description of the perp? Tell me who I need to kill! You okay?

You reported this to the police right? Or to the State Troopers?
hermionegranger · 4 years ago
No I’m visiting in Texas so probably a stranger who wanted to cause danger

I mean you should still report it, whether or not you're just visiting. The local PD would probably ramp up patrols in the area or at the very least post a cruiser where it happened. I'm extremely confused on why you wouldn't report attempted murder to the police.

@interesting raises a very valid point.

I agree with @interesting, that driver hit you with the possible intent to kill you. A car isn't something to play around with, especially to people who are vulnerable just on a bike. I'm glad you're okay but that could've gone a lot worse if you didn't react so quickly.
