So i was involved in an accident today where the guy said "he didn't see me comeing" so basically he pulled out infront of my while i was going through the intersection at 41 and 52. I was slowing down just because of all the traffic but went through the intersection at a good 40-45 MPH. I did all i could not to hit him and i just caught his rear bumper, quarter panel which was pretty messed up on his truck(ram 1500).

He told me to pull down the street after the crowd left us. Which i did while probably still in shock but followed him. I then exchanged information and tryed to make it to my house. I only made it maybe 3 miles before the Oil cooler lines busted and oil was leaking on my knee/leg (the one that dented his bumper) so i pull over and called my uncles for a lift.


My question is What should by my next step? Suck it up and just fix the bike Or take legal action? I don't have insurance on my bike should i put it on there then file a claim? I don't have an Endorsement either. Would a Lawyer be a bad decision?

The front of my bike is in pieces and my knee is about 2 1/2 sizes bigger then the other besides that Im Still breathing but my bike is pretty undriveable.
