I got accident last month when I rode my Ninja on 105 freeway. I was lane splitting between carpool lane and right 1st lane. The traffic was very slow for all lanes. My speed is about 35-40 mph. A shuttle van on the carpool lane suddenly changed lane, crossed the double solid lanes and caused me to fall immediately. My bike didn't hit the van. I suffered shoulder injury and was sent to emergency room. Fortunately no bone fracture. I was fully protected by the gears. The van driver denied that he changed lane. I am still waiting for police report.

I am not sure if I will ride motorcycle again. But if I do, I will definitely use a video camera during riding. In case I got accident again, I can get direct evidence.
