As I was driving at 6am for my flight back home to chicago this morning, I was on I-95 and some douche in an SUV pulled into my lane too close and knocked the front of my car, which made me swerve and hit the barrier :( :(

I'm okay but the front end of my car is all smashed and I missed my flight home for the holidays, and now I have to get this car business figured out....and I'm not sure whether I'll be able to get another flight home.

whattacrapshoot!


I hope your holidays are starting better than mine :/

Yeah it was ironic because I usually drive to and from Maine, but the one time I fly home, I get in an accident on the 10 minute drive to the airport, lol

yuck. did the guy at least stop and swap information with you?



my holidays haven't really started yet. I'm closing my eyes and covering my ears and singing "I've got plenty of time to get all this done, no pressure, no worries."

Oh! He did stop, it was very obvious that he hit the side of my car pretty hard, and the car behind me also got smashed trying (unsuccessfully) to avoid the accident.



He claims he didn't see me, yadda yadda. I told him that maybe if he got a normal sized car and a normal sized ego, he wouldn't have been on his phone blabbing away and hitting cars.

I felt bad because it was like a big accident thing and it blocked traffic once rush hour started :/

That guy was on his phone?! Where I live, driving and using your cell (without hands-free) is an offence.
