Recently, I was just completing a negative split training ride when I was struck from behind by a hit and run driver. They estimated his speed to be 40 mph. I do not remember anything about the accident. I found out later that- very fortunately- a passing driver stopped, called 911 and rendered aid.
I was unconscious, but my Road ID had all the information that was needed for me to get proper treatment and to contact my loved ones. I'm recovering from a broken back, head injury, puncture wounds and road rash...I feel blessed and lucky to be alive.
Update: I now wear my Road ID all the time...I'm so grateful for the peace of mind it provides me and my family. I bought a new bike and I can't wait to get back outside and ride again. I will also be wearing the Firefly gear, in hopes I will be more visible to drivers!
