Sorry to hear about your accident
. For what it's worth, 5k miles in 2 years isn't really that much at all.
You sure it wasn't anybody's fault?

I understand the situation, cars turning in the middle of tons of traffic can be VERY hard to see. That said, if you followed the CHP Guidelines for lane splitting, I think this accident would have been avoided. Much easier to emergency brake w/o locking up when you're traveling at 10 mph versus 20
