The whole thing is that I had on my left blinker to notify any one coming up or towards me and when I saw that is was clear I started the left turn, just as I was in it about 65% of the way the cyclist bales right into the front side of us. The police said that the guy saw me slow down and "looked" like I was going to make a right but instead I made a left and that is why he ran into us. It is all unfair but then life is not always fair right? It is sad but justice will hopefull come one day. Take care everyone and thanks for listening and being here, Diana

Now just stands alone due to none priority
A fire that many have chosen to distinguish
Maybe due to the intensity of its anguish
Silence to the fire that was put out today

Okay, I need to clear up a statement I made earlier, you can pass on the left if you are on a road with more than one lane, I was on a single lane road with the opposite traffic coming towards us on the other lane, I was making a left when all traffic behind me should slow down or come to a stop until I complete my turn but it did not happen this way, I was still in the single lane turning left when we were hit from behind on our left front because the cyclist passed me on the left veering into the other side of the road towards oncoming traffic. Now still the police say it is my fault because I did not look in my mirrors to clear traffic coming and the cyclist and "his" witness said I had on a right blinker to make a left turn! Now come on why is the real reason here? The insurance company only received my single statement from the MP's and Paul's somehow mysteriously disappeared in the process so when the insurance company saw that I was the only one and this guy had a witness they gave him an advanced payment automatically faulting me without investigation. Now once I called the insurance company to find out WHY it was my fault I found this out, told the man that Paul's was missing but that did not change anything because now this man has an advanced payment that they can not take back without being sued. ARRGGG, okay I'm calm now. So either I accept it or persue it not knowing what will happen to me AND because I am not Military and only a spouse, JAG (Judge Advocate General) will not represent me because I am not a soldier nor will the system at all help me because of being none military and being in a foreign country. Military life is not all it is cracked up to be!

OH Diana, I am sorry they are putting you in this position. That has to be so frustrating. I hope you are OK. It sounds like a very unfair decision which was based on a lot of inaccuracies. I wish things were better. what is the next step? Is it just over now or is there more they do now?

Hi Karen, for me it is over! I am done with it. Paul wants to persue it but that could cause problems. I will let God handle it. I forgot to weigh in to, I have as of today lost 4 lbs of the 7 I gained over the weekend. I was down to 277, went up to 284 and this morning I am down to 280. I am still so sore from weight lifting on Monday, my puny (?) arms ain't as strong as my legs are but I'm working on it  [;D]. Everyone thank you so much for all that you have done here for me. You all are the GREATEST!!!!!!!!!!!! Have a great day, Diana.

Here in California it is illegal to pass to the right at any time! I am sorry it is still an issue for you.. laws are so different everywhere! Sorry Diana!

I am confused by this, although as you say, laws are different in different countries.

Certainly, in Europe, it is illegal to overtake on the nearside lane (I use this term because it means different things in the UK, where we drive on the left, than in mainland Europe of America, where you drive on the right); but if a car is stationary on the outside lane (e.g. waiting to turn), one would not expect to wait alongside him until he moves again (e.g. that may imply that you would be blocking a stream of traffic in an otherwise clear nearside lane while you wait for someone to make a turn from the outside lane - it would not make sense).

You are doing well Diana.. I am glad you have lost 4 of the 7 you gained. It happens we all fluctuate it is hard to stay right on. I spoke with my doctor today and am going to have to see a surgeon about my arm. I am going to have to have surgery! Everything falls apart at the same time seems!Oh well we just pick up and move on Right? Right!
I will be grateful to be able to use my arm again.

Sorry your so sore. Please be careful so you don't tear something up like I did!


You are the greatest Diana and I am so proud of you still plugging away with me. Good Job!...

You too Carolyn!...

I have been there before - very difficult to prove what did and did not happen.  There is still a problem that you have a technical duty to check your mirrors just before making a manoeuvre, even if you are making it blatantly obvious what you are doing, and nobody but a complete idiot (which includes a large number of young and inexperienced motorcyclists) would ever have any doubt in the matter.

I would rather ask whether, if there was traffic on your lane behind you, how a motorcyclist coming up on your outside could see if your nearside indicator was flashing - would it not have been obscured by the cars behind you?

It was 10 at night and the cyclist and his companion were the only ones on the road behind us but it happened so suddenly that when I looked in my mirror there was nothing then as I was turning BAM!
