Recalling his days as one Hollywood's most popular action heroes, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said Monday a weekend accident won't stop him from riding motorcycles.
    As an actor, he said, he had to sign contracts covering possible injuries from stunts.

    "I did all those things anyway," Schwarzenegger said. "I never played by the rules."

    The governor received 15 stitches in his lip after he and his 12-year-old son, Patrick, were involved in the accident Sunday near their Los Angeles home, his spokeswoman Margita Thompson said. He and Patrick were treated for cuts and bruises at St. John's Hospital in Santa Monica and released. Both were wearing helmets.

    The governor was riding a Harley Davidson motorcycle with his son in a sidecar when another driver backed into the street, Thompson said. Schwarzenegger collided with the car at low speed.

    The other driver was uninjured. No citations were issued in the accident in the city's Brentwood section, said Officer Jason Lee, a police spokesman.

美国加利福尼亚州州长阿诺德·施瓦辛格的发言人1月8日表示，这位美国前好莱坞传奇巨星同日和他12岁的儿子在其位于洛山矶的住所附近遭遇摩托车事故。事故发生后，施瓦辛格的嘴唇足足被缝了15针。

    据美联社1月8日报道，施瓦辛格的发言人马吉塔·汤普森在一份声明中表示，事故发生时，施瓦辛格正骑着一辆哈利牌摩托车，他的儿子帕特里克则坐在摩托车的跨斗里，而马路上的另外一名司机正在倒车。汤普森说：“州长当时来不及躲避，于是两辆低速行驶的车撞在了一起。”

    事故发生后，施瓦辛格和他的儿子都被送往圣莫尼卡的圣约翰医院，治疗伤口和擦伤。所幸，当时他们父子俩都带着头盔，而另外那名司机并没有受伤。
