Not a good day - Daughter in accident
On her way home from school - she picked up my 9 yo from school and was heading home..... left bumper to left bumper thru a light...
Took my little one away in ambulance......... 9yo got several stitches and my oldest is fine - just shaken up....
Had a cigarette to calm down - dont tell my kids ...
Guess I owe one to the big guy up there .... :hail

Looks like the white car, turned into the gray one?
I would keep them home from school tomorrow to make sure they are not hurting in the morning.
Thanks..... Yes sir - she was in her grey car going straight - other "kid" didnt see her and started to turn ---- wack.....around 30mph
Biggest problem - some idiot that made the left before they hit said he saw my my daughter hit the white car - said he looked in his rear view mirror.... Impossible - left bumper to left bumper...
Some idiot community aide worker said she had to write it up as the witness said - I was losing my mind.... Here is the evidence - its physically impossible that the white car had right of way...... grey car would have hit his RIGHT bumper or quarter panel..
I lost it on her.... she later came to hospital and said I was right - but she had to right it up as the witness said... I dont get it.. ?
It would probably pay to ask a good attorney to give his opinion on this! Sorry about the accident.
Sayin... :driver
Glad they are gonna be ok.:angel
That will shake you up like nothing will. Thank God, no one was hurt bad.
Many long-time members will recall when I thanked the TraumaHawk guys for taking care of my baby. To this day, will never forget the phone call. Found out you can't beat the helicopter to Delray no matter how fast you go.
I am amazed that the Broward Service Aide would write up a report based on an eye witness that saw the accident in his "rear view mirror"...
The evidence is so clear...... I ripped her a new hole and 30 min later she came to hospital and "off the record" said I was right - but "had to write it up based on eye witness".....
Feel bad for the little one - she got an eyebrow full of stitches and a boxers nose from hitting the dash.....
Pouring a scotch now... need to chill a bit
Thanks all for your best wishes....
Here is my middle daughter - kidding around in the ER.... while the little one was getting stitches....
No seat belt?
Glad they're okay, but would have been nice if you had a witness close by when the "tech" came by to talk with you. Pretty obvious though, should work out okay.
Isn't it funny how the siblings can, "bring the humor" to MOST real life situations. Thankfully....
They have to write it down, being they were a witness. Did you ever think that possibly that person and the one that hit your daughter, might know each other?
Never seem more learned than the people you are with. Wear your learning like a pocket watch and keep it hidden. Do not pull it out to count the hours, but give the time when you are asked. --- Lord Chesterfield
The kind of phone calls parents don't like getting.
Did I mention SEAT BELTS??????
Thank goodness they're ok. It could have been much worse.
Especially since someone wasn't wearing a seat belt.
People have died in lesser accidents than that, almost always when they're not.....
20 min before that same daughter was crying her eyes out cause they pulled away in an ambulance and the little one was all bloody and on stretcher ....
Then once she knew the little one was ok - she started her joking around ......
This is going to be her next seat belt
It's how all intelligent humans deal with stress. No need for lectures, she learned a lesson neither will ever forget. Mother Nature is funny like that.
:troll
You did the right thing by contacting YOUR lawyer. Do not deal with the other drivers insurance company yourself. Let your lawyer do that.
Also allow no one to inspect your daughters car. If it is at impound, get it back home and get it covered up. Investigators will want to tap into the vehicles event recorder data, do not allow it.
Food for thought.
Everything you see in a mirror is backwards.
People never see accidents in a mirror, they look in the mirror when they hear the crash, by then the seeing is over.
Thats what I told the person writing the report... "how can u take the word of a witness that was looking in rear view mirror over the logical evidence in front of you"...
All my friends are **** attorneys.... No offense to any lawyers here.... So all will work out...
Car is probably totaled - other car hit hers right on the left tire - axle is ripped out and pushed back - frame may be bent a bit ... value of car around 5k... minus 1k deduct - so looks like its car buying time again...
