Sounds like a negligent act on the part of the city and state. Might as well add both to cover your ass. Sounds like you have a case against the state/city. Consult a lawyer.

Yeah man I had on all my gear. All I remember is the tumble, didn't feel my ankles hit anything but apparently they did. I was doing 70 when It all started to happen don't know what speed I was at when I actually hit the pavement. On a good note I am walking again and back to work so be wrenching soon.

In April, I hit something in the road, tank slapper, hit another something in the road, zip, boom, bang, on my head rolling down the asphalt. One exploded ankle and one really sore body. Hope to start walking again in 6 or 8 more weeks... Fingers crossed...
By the way... ' Full Gear '

Wow man! Just take your time and let it heal and you will be back on your feet in no time. It took me close to 6 months before I could walk on both feet again. Full gear saves you form alot of stuff but not all of it. hope your healing well and be back on your feet soon.
