[QUOTE="Sammie, post: 184913, member: 8657"] On this same "off topic", would like to share this. Last summer I was showing my out of state son in law around the Denver area. We both love to garden and I was driving him thru some scenic neighborhoods where we were admiring people's gardens and landscaping. I was going VERY slow, 5 mph or less, thank God. One family on a particular street was having a large gathering of people in their front yard and as I drove by their house, an 8 yr old or so little boy raced out into the street and right into the front of my van. There was just a slight enough impact to knock him down. Derek and I flew out of the van to see if he was OK and the "lawn party" was oblivious to what happened for too many minutes, in my opinion. The boy was not hurt or bruised, nothing that we could see and the parents weren't terribly affected....??.... We went home and the more I thought about it, I called the police, who very politely reamed me a new one and told me to get my sorry butt over to their office ASAP. FYI!!!! If you and your bicycle, motorcycle, car, whatever, make contact no matter how slight with a person or with that person on a bike, motorcycle, car, please go to the police dept and fill out a report or it could come back at you in the manner of a law suit you don't EVER want to contend with. According to the police, people often expand on "incidents" and if you haven't covered yourself, you could find yourself in some very deep doo. [/QUOTE]
