And when I say run in, I do mean run in.
I was on a busy town road, lots of intersections and traffic lights. I had just been stopped at a red light and was trying to get up near the speed of traffic. I was going about 24mph, had my head down trying to get up closer to 30mph... I looked up and saw the car in front of me turning right. No way did I have enough time to slow down, never mind stop. I got on the brakes HARD, locked up both, the rear end started to come up and I was headed over the bars. My head went into the rear quarter panel and left a good sized dent, then I finished my trip over the bars and ended up on my head in the middle of the road.
I'm a little banged up, but nothing serious, the lady's car has a nice dent in it. She was VERY nice about it all despite the fact that it was my fault. We exchanged numbers just in case and went on our way.
