I hope it isn't in the air or the weather or anything but my parents and I were in an accident this afternoon totaling their van.
We were coming home from a bday party this afternoon sitting at a stop light, I was in the middle passenger seat reading and heard a loud VRRROOOOMMMMM and BAM. I was tossed forward and my mom's seat came back and I hit the top of my head on the back of her seat. Both seats broke backward and looked like they were sitting way down low. The back bench seat was up at an angle. We were ok. We stopped at the emergency room on the way home and got checked out. Very sore but otherwise ok. The other driver was taken to the hospital - not entirely sure what all was wrong with him - he was drunk, had no insurance and trying to pass a whole line of cars on the passenger sides of the cars doing about 55 or 60mph. And mind you we were stopped at a red light, if he wouldn't have hit us he would have went right into an intersection where there were tons of semi's turning into a truck stop. He had a passenger that I will just say was in the country illegally and he jumped out of the truck and tried to crawl under the guard rail to run across the field, a passerby grabbed him and made him stay, then he tried to sneak off to a fast food restaraunt and was caught again. When the troopers got there they shut him in the squad car so he wouldn't go anywhere again.
I called 911- they had several calls for the accident. I called my sister to come get us.
Here are some pics of the van.
Notice the fireman in one of the pics- wonder what RICHARD will say.
I have a headache, sore neck and middle back, and my right hip is sore. Just got out of a hot bath and am going to ice myself down and go to bed.
