Jul. 2nd, 2014 06:05 pmWe've had a bit of an eventful day today when, on the way to James' hospital appointment, we ended up the first car in a three car shunt. We came off a roundabout and just beyond it is a zebra crossing. Stopped to let a man cross over, the car behind us stopped too, but the one behind him was going too fast, hit the car behind ours, which was shoved forward at speed into our car.
That second car got the worst of the damage with a crumpled bumper and bonnet, plus there was a baby in the backseat, so an ambulance was called and the police were there very quickly. Which is good as the man who caused the accident started to square up to the middle car driver and threatened to punch him.
Our car has very little damage, just surface scratches on the bumper from what I can see, but motability want it in to have it checked over properly. Which means another hire car and yet more pulling out money for the deposit. Which we'll get back I know, but wasn't part of the financial plans this week.
James has been to the doctors and it seems he has whiplash, but I feel okay, even though people keep saying I could feel it tomorrow. Which, if so, I'm blaming them all for their negative thoughts. Or you know, the idiot who thought it was okay to go around a roundabout at speed.
I just hope that baby is okay, and her mam, who was getting treatment too.
