We're OK, but had a car accident..
Just got in.. Mark and I were going into town with our '00 Pathfinder (he was driving, I in front passenger..) with our ATV on a trailer behind us, going to get some propane.. we were just going along at the 55 mph speed limit. well, on a side road where They had a stop sign, this woman rolls right through it.. plows right into us. I could see the whole thing and keep playing it over in my head; the crash itself was terrifying but the two of us are OK. Our truck is totaled in front (they'd better not claim to be able to fix it, meaning her insurance) and out ATV broke its lashes and flew off the trailer, landing on its top in the middle of the road; Mark jumped out and flipped it rightside up and pushed it over so no more crashes would happen.. her car was pretty banged up; richoceted off our front end/left quarterpanel and landed in a ditch at an angle, but her and her apssenger were not critically injured, though ambulances took them.
This other driver, was this old woman who HAD to have seen us; I mean, how do you miss a huge SUV rolling along at 55 mph with a huge trailer and a big ATV on it!? You know how sometimes you casually roll through stopsigne when it is clear as day on both sides.. well, please don't do it like she did, when an SUV is cruising along at you.
I am still pretty shaken up; dropped off at home by Mark's cousin and I let the horses in, ate some meatloaf and well I really need to type this stuff out. Please everyone, drive carefully, but more importantly look out for the moronic idiots who aren't.
And please wear seatbelts; we would both be dead or shattered if we weren't; the airbags didn't deploy.
