My Car Accident...

If any of you remember, last summer I was in a rather serious car accident... neutral I got blindsided by a pickup truck which crashed right into the driver's side door, point blank...

Well, today I saw a video of a crash that was practically identical to the one I was in...The truck that hit me was going between 45-50 mph...the truck in this video was going 55mph...check this out:

http://www.ifilm.com/vira...id=2650370

The report says the driver of the car that was hit is in critical condition... sad I truly feel lucky to have been able to walk out of my car, thanks only to a steel rod that was built into the door and kept my car from caving in on me.


The whole thing still freaks me out... sigh

Oh man, Byron, I had no idea that happened to ya... sad

It is very traumatic for anyone.

I've been in a couple fenderbenders, but I remember being in a pretty
serious car accident when I was about 12 yrs old...Mom's ran a stop sign and we
got hit on my side...

pray for your continued safety.
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

I was rear ended in two different instances years ago. Fortunately I had my seat belt on for both cases.

It's a shame about the driver in that other situation, but I'm glad in yours you were ok.

Those kinds of experiences in life really stay with you and make you wonder.
