Background:
On june 4th I was rear ended at a stoplight while the wife and i were on the trike. Idiot stopped about 10 feet back but then decided to creep closer and hit the gas instead of the brake. The wife said her back hurt so a trip to the ER. She checked out OK and has had no problems since. Very minor damage to the trike.
From dealing with His insurance Co. I found out that NO basic motorcycle insurance covers medical (but some companies will add for additional $$$) ALL medical claims go through your health care provider (verified by aetna)
I never thought about who would pay in a accident involving a bike but now I know.
Check your policies. If you have no health insurance look into your options.
