Nick, your words and experience are what I couldn't come up with myself and I do appreciate them tremendously. Even with my accident, you still bring it to another level for me and it helps a great deal. This incident had me doing something yesterday I might not have done otherwise. I was on the freeway, on my bike once again. This time I'm in the left hand faster lane and I suddenly observe chunks of metal debris flying off the top of a tow truck carrying a damaged bobtail. These chunks landed in the middle it's lane following after it. I don't know if any cars or bikes hit them, but I proceeded to get that guy off the highway and did the best I could to make him aware of the dangers. Geez, if I'd been behind him!!! I remember a wheel cover hitting me too a couple of years ago. All in all, I hope as much good and watchful care can be reckoned with all the other riders that read this.
