Yesterday I was driving and a dude ran a stop sign and hit my passenger side. The back door for sure is going to be replaced but not sure about the front door. I have a goose egg on my head with neck, shoulder and back pain. I am thankful it wasn't worse and that I was alone in the car. I was able to slow down and turn the car to minimize the damage. The guy said he didn't see me which I was shocked by. There was a nice Romanian cabbie who was a witness. He actually stayed till the police came. The officer was super nice and helpful. Everyone at the hospital was as well. And of course you do feel worse the next day but it will pass. I am actually taking muscle relaxers for the first time ever.
This has to be the quickest claim ever. I found out today that he accepted responsibility and I will be able to get my car fixed soon. I will be in a rental in the meantime. I will get workman's comp for yesterday and today because I was on the job. I have never gone through that thankfully. My insurance covers my medical and his covers the damage. The adjuster said things that make claims go quickly are honesty and admitting what happened. True that. I am glad this is over.
I saw the car coming at me and I knew it was going to hit me. It was one of those moments when you know something bad is coming and you just have to ride it out. I rode it out. I haven't been in an accident in years. I have never caused one either but it is a reminder how something can happen in an instant. So I went from scared as hell to finding my gratitude. I am glad to be here, I still have a lot of shit to do.
