After he was hit by a car, Ryan Sabga found a new use for his GPSR, which repaid its cost many times over and provided great satisfaction.

Fred:
I hope we all never have to use this "bread crumb" track! Interesting use, though.

Going through the decision on whether to use maps or a GPS for my upcoming tour I found your post to be very interesting. Maps can't do that!

Three quick comments:

The Denver police officers who showed up at your accident don't seem to take the "public servant" part of their job very seriously.

The woman who hit you should rot in hell. Not for the accident itself...that happens...but for all of the trouble she INTENTIONALLY tried to cause for you after the fact. She should be very ashamed. (But in reality probably is PO'd at you..lol)

It's great to hear a story that involves the insurance company doing the right thing.
