While touring in France on a country road, I got hit by a Police car who underestimated the radius in a long left curve. It sent me into the ditch; I fortunately got away with a few scratches, my back fenders and my kickstand were broken and my back wheel got a bit deformed. The police car didn't get damaged.
The worst was the lecture I had to endure from the police agent who accused me of riding too far left, which was bullshit. He just went too fast into the curve and couldn't steer away from me anymore. Anyway; I did not want to argue with him and paid for the repairs myself.
