Good to see it was just a low-speed bump. The gap is there on my scooter too, I remember it from when I mounted my rear rack.

How do you mount your camera? I had originally come up with a mount for my phone to do this, but since scrapped the idea because it vibrated too much.

That's what happened to me 4 or 5 months ago and I wondered about the gap too. The car bumper gave my L late a much needed clean and bumped into the tyre.

If she'd hit you a bit harder you would have gone into the path of the car coming from the right :x Though I see there was an ambulance nearby.

did you swap phone numbers? I reckon she wants to date you and that was a nudge for attention.
