Gotta be the most odd looking scene for a crash.
Thanks for the details it does make sense once explained but still looks very weird looking at it.
Hope the rider recovers well.
I have seen some pretty freakin' odd crashes myself...can't say this one takes the cake. Hoping for a speedy recovery for the rider.
Oh, and as far as fault goes...I know it's never bright to assume a driver is going to do anything other than the stupidest possible thing he/she can come up with, but I'm a bit tired of idiot drivers...like the one that flipped me off today for getting in his way while he was going THE WRONG WAY ON A ONE WAY STREET so he could turn into a driveway that he would otherwise have had to trouble himself to go around the block to get to.

I'm just sayin'...
