On my way to Jazzercise this morning at 7:45, I was in a car accident. Someone ran a stop sign right into me! I was going about 30mph & they were going around 40mph. I was not badly injured, but had the typical sore thumbs & wrists from my airbag going off. And sore back and neck from being jarred. I was so lucky to have been in my big, NEW :( H3 and sorry to say that the other car, a Ford Escort, did not fair so well. The couple in it were pretty hurt. The firefighters actually had to crowbar the driver out of his car. Both were taken to the ER. My car doesn't look that bad, but last I heard, estimates for repairs were close to $20K! For example: None of the windows in my car were broken, but most have to be replaced because the guys car hit me so hard, his glass from his car etched into all my windows (and paint too)! The other driver was sited for failure to stop at a stop sign and their insurance is accepting liability. I should have my car back in 4 to 6 weeks!
All I have to say is...
Seattle, you can flip me off, spit on me, call me names; whatever! While your Hybrids are saving the planet, my Hummer was saving ME!
