Thread: I was in a car accident

  1. #1

    I was in a car accident

    Justin and I were headed home from a friends house tonight when we were in a car accident. We're both okay, as is the lady who hit us.

    We were sitting at a red light waiting to turn left and there was a car across the road also waiting for the light to change. When the light turned green Justin waited because he needed to turn and the other car was going straight. The car wasn't driving straight though, it was curving right towards us. Justin yelled "she's going to hit us" and he turned the truck to the right (away from the car) and hit the gas, but she still hit us.

    To make a long story short- the woman who hit us was really drunk. When she got out of her car she couldn't even stand up. The officer asked for her license, registration, and insurance card and she was clueless. Her son came and helped out with her. She didn't even know where she was or what she was doing. The officer said she was going to jail.

    Justin and I are both a little sore, but we're both fine. The truck on the other hand we're not sure about, it had to be towed away.

    Oh no, Kari!!

    I'm so glad everyone was OK...that could have been really bad has Justin not been watching what she was doing.

    She's VERY lucky she didn't kill anyone...I hope she learns her lesson in her jail cell!!

    Wow, it's a good thing Justin saw that car coming. You are so lucky to be not hurt, that must have been so scary! I'm glad everyone is alright.

    That's so scary, Kari.

    I'm glad the both of you are okay. Did you get checked over by the ambulance? Sometimes those little pains are the worst ones to have after an accident because you don't find the underlying causes until later.

    Hopefully that lady gets what's coming to her.... and your poor truck gets "fixed", one way or another.

    Thats terrible! I'm so glad that you and Justin are ok. I hope things work out with the truck. Hopefully the woman has insurance to cover everything.

    That is horrible! I'm glad you're both alright. Very sorry to hear about the truck. I'm wondering if you should get a lawyer because of that woman. I can't stand drunk drivers! She could have killed someone. Probably just get a slap on the wrist, too.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    how scary! I am sure glad that you two are OK. Car accidents are so scary - you just never know what other people are doing - hope you are able to have the truck fixed or replaced.

    How scary.
    I am so glad you are all ok! And her, well hope she gets what she deserves. Driving drunk is no laughing matter. She better learn her lesson too.
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.
