    Bike Crash

    Hello Everyone, I'm new on this forum, and I want to know your opinions, and if you have had similar issues. I'm a novice bike rider, and been riding for around 2-3 months now. I was in my very first bike crash yesterday, going at around 30-40 mph. I was going down the road, and I could see there was a traffic jam, so I decided to overtake the traffic by riding on the white ground markings on the right hand side. A woman decided that she didn't want to stay in the traffic anymore, so she wanted to do a 3 point turn on the road. The woman signalled and turned to the right at the same time, so I did not have enough time to react at all, and ended up hitting her front wheel (driver side). I ended up flying across the road, landing on the pavement around 10 meters away from the initial crash. Some witnesses said the woman was at fault, while other witnesses said that it was my fault. But I strongly disagree, what are Your thoughts on this? Thankfully, I ended up with a minor cut on my right leg. However, I've told the hospital on multiple occasions that my leg was fine, but my back hurts right in-between my shoulder blades. They told me it's most likely just a muscle strain due to the impact of the crash, and that I don't have to worry. Keep in mind, they never did an X-Ray for my back... Only my right leg to make sure it wasn't broken or fractured. Question is, should I revisit the hospital for an X-Ray? Or is that indeed a muscle strain, and should fade away in couple of days? I can move my whole body, such as legs and everything, but whenever I want to reach for something with my arms, or lay back, my back hurts a lot, it's like a knife stabbing my back. Should I be worried? Thank you!
