#1 glad your OK. When I went down on '91, I had enough time to slow down to the point that my helmet didn't touch down either. I had plenty of rash, but no stitches/staples (the guy in front of me wasn't so lucky).
#2 talk to a lawyer asap while it's still fresh. You can sue for pain/suffering/damages. I'm not implying that you try to get rich, but you should get enough to fix your bike and then some.
Take it easy for a week or so. Get better as the desire to get back on will grow.

Well I have not talked to the Senior officer in charge, they took me away in the ambulance before she got there. However my friends who got there and picked up the bike for me said that while the lady was trying to blame me for it, the officer didn't seem to be accepting that story. I called her (officer) and left a voice mail to call me back.
I want to find out what she wrote in the report before I worry too much about a lawyer etc.

lazn, you look too happy in that one photo, must be the drugs.
Glad you're okay, and the bike doesn't look bad. Also glad that the Officer is on your side.
By the way, if you were in Mexico, you would have to pay for that bent sign before they would let you go back to AZ.

Good to hear you're ok. Hopefully she will never drive again and go to jail for wreckless endangerment with a deadly weapon, not that failure to yield bullshit. Why would she pull all the way out to the middle lane? The only reason I can think of is to hit YOU. She was trying her best to kill you. In lieu of jail time I think a license restricting her to only operating a scooter would be very constructive punishment.

"One does not bear arms against a rabbit..."

I hope something truly awfull happens to that senile old bitch. I hate old people that think they still have any coordination. endanger my life every day, and twice on weekends. the only good thing about old lady drivers is that they don't have the processing power to try and talk on a cell while they drive badly. yeah I'm harsh. they try to kill us. I will stay harsh.
