i was on my way home and obviously crossing the road at the cross-walk. this car was supposed to stop, i had to run across the road; and this car came up onto the sidewalk when i reached it trying to get at me.
i felt the side of the hood on my ass while trying to dodge the car. it literally clipped me. i ran back to my other mom and had her give me a ride home.
im just really looking for some comfort right now :'(

well thats how furs are, we always have each other's backs. at least i hope so.
but f*** that was too close for comfort and its not the first time

If I can make you feel a little better, I ran into a car with my bike.
Im happy you're ok, and safe. I hope, for you, that car is never around again.
Otherwise im gonna have to teach them a lesson in Drivers RE-ED!!
Good thing you didn't lose your tail. Hey, i'm sure a scary event from someone else can help.
Umm, well.. the scariest thing that happened to me was I broke my ankle and I had no way to get to anyone.
I tried riding my bike but that failed, lol. Thankfully, my cousins came by and helped get someone.
This one is short term but it was terrifying.. it was sleep paralysis nightmare.
*Hugs you* Im happy for you, considering no harm happened. Hey, bright side is you can still do everything!
I hope I helped a little Alistair.

I know of friends who were hit (and SEVERELY injured) by vehicular negligence. Too many people either don't pay attention to the road or too many people just do not care for the lives of others.

I knew a guy who'd been hit by a car that drove up on the sidewalk where he was standing. He filed a lawsuit and won 2 million in damages, he's barely 24 and doesn't even know what to do with his money. smh.
I'm glad you're ok tho, getting hit by a car sucks :(
-
People can be so mean and ignorant to others trying to cross the road. I hope you stay safe and that this doesn't happen again. If it were me I would record everything when I cross the road so that I have evidence to file a lawsuit as well. We all deserve something good when we are bullied or hurt.

I got pretty much no patience on the road, but I'd never internationally try to hit someone like that prick in your story. I wish life were like GTA as much as the next guy, but, of course that ain't gonna happen.

you dont wanna be anywhere ive been walking then, because there are places where there are no sidewalks but there are slight shoulders like on highways, and people come about as close as possible without actually hitting people, sometimes yelling obscenities at them afterwards (i had this happen to me on numerous occasions, one of them got pulled over though, funny enough). so yeah, i know how that is. then there was one time when i was crossing while the "walk" light was on, and this old man was trying to turn left, but his light was red. i was right in front of his car just starting to pass it and he decides its time to put the gas on full, so i just turned and hopped up onto his hood and sat there telling him off as he tried to yell at me, waiting until his light was green and then hopping off and finishing crossing the street. so yeah, i know that feeling...
