He was coming straight at me and I jumped to get out of the way...my foot hit the curb and I fell. The guy didnt even stop! My hands and knees are all bruised and scratched up pretty badly. I was only half way home so I had to run the rest of the way home bleeding and all.
My question...are you supposed to run/bike with or against traffic????

Yup! That happened to me this winter in the parking garage at work. A car was coming straight at me and I started to run, and fell on ice. They didn't even stop, just drove around me. I ripped my pants and everything--really felt like a kid again. Anyway, be careful and make sure you are OK--I wound up having to go to the orthopedic surgeon because I hurt the shoulder of the arm I landed on since I was running when I fell.

A similar thing happened to me while rollerblading last year..... except it was a car. Very scary I know!! I was skating against traffic, which is how you should do it I believe, just like walking or running.

Yea...I'm ok....thanks for asking! I am just kind of banged up is all. Some of the scrapes especially on my hands hurt a lot. I feel like such a baby complaing about my cuts with bandaids on my knees...
