Hey guys. A while ago I got in a trike accident (the motorized kind).
There's a reason why theyre illegal, and I realize that now. But what happened was I was driving this trike and I tried to take this turn, but I was going way too fast, and I ended up in a 15 foot ditch, and my head came within millimeters of hitting the pipe that lets the water through. ( I cant remember exactly what its called.)
But anyways when I hit the bottom, my legs were pinned in between the tires and the wheelwell so the tires used my legs as a human braking system. And the pegs on the trike dug into my knee. I definitely could have used stitches but I just cleaned it daily and took some antibiotics I had in the house. So I'm all healed up now, and have some decent looking scars. But I just found some pics that I took within an hour of falling into the ditch.
Theyre semi-graphic, which is why I'm going to link to them.
