Tuesday, February 6, 2007 - Car Accident



I was in a car accident today, just about 1 1/2 hours ago.  It was just down the street as we were going to my friends house.  I unfortunately didn't see the car in front of me stopped. It was right after an intersection, so I was in go mode, took my eyes away for a sec (that is usually what happens isn't it?) and this car was stopped. I actually didn't notice until I hit her going about 20-25 at the most.  Both air bags deployed and boy what a shocker that was.  I am still shaking over it.  The smell and smoke that came out of the air bags was gagging.  I had only seen them deploy on tv.  I am glad that they worked though.  My left hand was a bit sore but as the day goes on my whole left side is starting to stiffen up and get sore from hip to middle back to neck and shoulder.  The gal I hit said she got confused and hit the break instead of the gas. I think she must have needed to slow down to let someone turn and then instead of going she came to a complete stop. By the time I hit her no one was around, so I am not exactly sure what happened. 

Thank God the kids are fine, and so was the mom and two kids in the car I hit.  Thank God my husband is an understanding compassionate person who would never get mad at me for having an accident, even though the car is a mess and will cost us money.  Thank God he came home from work to help take care of things. I had spoken to the insurance company and they have rendered the car a total loss.  Hubby disagrees so he is now dealing with the insurance company.  We believe the Insurance company has quite a little scam going on with the adjuster and salvage company. 

Will you please pray for this to be settled in our best interest and not the insurance company. Wishful thinking huh?  Oh ,and if you could reccommend a company, as we will be changing after this or get dropped, and will need a new one.

By the way, this is the first accident in our marriage and I hadn't had one since highschool, so this is a bit of a shocker.  Ok, gotta go, the back is getting sore.  Thankfully I have a Dr. appt tomorrow morning and hopefully get a referral to see my physical therapist.

Thanks friends,
Susan

I'm so glad you're okay! Will pray that the insurance works out for the best. And I'll leave you with (almost) my two favorite words of advice: Take Arnica!!!
(Did you expect anything else from me??? In case you haven't noticed, I really am sold on the stuff.)

I'm so sorry to hear about your accident, but am so glad you are all right. Sometimes vehicles do not look like they are very much damaged, but when the cost of repair is more than the cost of replacement, the car will be deemed totalled. I hope you know a good chiropractor :)

Blessings,

Whoa, what a scary situation. Thank The Lord that nobody was injured. Man. It could have been so much worse. How nice that your husband is handling the insurance part. That could become quite a stress for you. Perfect time to submit to him, huh?
So, so glad you guys are allright.

I'm so glad you're alright! I imagine you will be quite sore for awhile.

Your insurance company wouldn't happen to be AIG, would it?? My hubby just drove through high water and they totaled our car. Not a mark on--just needed a new engine and they totalled it! We couldn't fight them because they were claiming it for salvage and with a salvage title, even though you can buy it back, you can never borrow on it. We still owed way to much, so we had to give up our beautiful, like new car that we had done tons to fix up. Major pain!

Take some Advil and break out the ice--it'll help! Hope you feel better soon!

That sounds like a horrible experience! I hope your physical pain is just sore muscles that will get better within couple of days. Keep us posted!

Hope you're feeling better today, Susan! Praising God that y'all are okay-- as are the passengers in the other car. That is scary indeed.

By the way, I love your new avatar! I wish my hair was that black!!! LOVELY!

Get some rest, take a hot bath (yet again, I'm sure), and I'll be praying about the car issue being settled appropriately. I hate it when people/companies run scams! Grrr...

Love,
Marsha
