Was in an accident...........
28 December 2007
Oh my goodness!!! I have never been scared in my life until today!!
I wasn't home since the 26th. I was at my folks house the whole time( one reason I wasn't able to get my photos up for Christmas!)..Anyways, I was going to come home yesterday but it started to snow and I passed 2 cars involved in an accident while going to the mall there, so I decided not to drive on the highway yesterday to come home. Hubby had phoned too, telling me that it was not a good idea to drive. So I stayed another night there. Finally today, it wasn't bad so I decided to come home. I was then on the highway, on cruise, doing 100km/hour on a 110 limit. I saw this truck with a flashing light driving slower than me up ahead. When I got near it, I checked my sides and my rear view mirror ready to pass him. The coast was clear, there were cars behind me but they were still way too far. So I know it was good to pass. I then passed the truck on the faster lane. I saw this car fast approaching behind me on the fast lane, meanwhile, I am still a few feet ahead from the tail of the truck. I then saw the car behind me passed me going to the third lane, which was fine by me. I was aware he was there. All of a sudden, I heard this scratchy tire sound and next thing I know, I saw his front right end hit the side of my car!! He hit my side door- the driver's side. It was really scary! Good thing my jeep didn't lost out of control, I was in control of the steering wheel and was able to slowly get my car to the side of the road until it stopped. Meanwhile, the sedan car that hits me span a little in the median. I thought they where going to be in bad shape but they were okay. The guy smashed his right side light on impact while my car received a big dent on the side! I am just glad nobody got hurt though. I was still shaking when we exchanged insurance and licenses....now I have to get it quoted after the holidays:(
Here's my remembrance!

Salamat sa Dios lay nasaktan sa inyo...sagdi lang ng sakyanan kay puede man na ilisan pero ang kinabuhi dili na jud. Be careful always and look out for careless drivers, they're the most dangerous, maskin unsaon nimo ug amping kung naay mga driver nga walay pakelam di ba? Happy new year to you all!!!!!!!!
