We had a wreck! A car slammed right into front side and fender. The driver was going fast, entering the roadway from our right. He hit side front and ripped around front of the car, dug his way into median, crossed road coming from opposite direction, went off the side of the road, dug out the shoulder, turned and came back up across the median behind us!
Whew! Then, he came limping up by Tommy's window, still in the median, said something fast in Spanish, indicated knee he was holding and went back to his car. He drove up onto the road and stopped by my window. He said something and pointed to Chicago Bulls patch and said "Burro, Burro." Then, he his the gas like a bat out of Hell, sped away and ran the red light ahead and continued speeding.
We called police. Tommy said there was a policeman right around that corner watching for speeders. They got him! We only know he got a hit and run. What else? We have no idea.
The car will drive. But, wheel or something scrubs. I have to fight my way out of the car and try hard to close it. Oh, Nerves are shot.
I was warning Tommy about his encroachment into our lane, but it all happened so quickly.
Oh my word, I'm so sorry! I'm glad you were not hurt but that is a royal pain in the backside having your car damaged. I'm so glad the police caught him but I hope he was insured, for your sakes!
ReplyDeleteThanks. We are quite sure he was not insured. People who run might not be.
DeleteGlad you are both ok.
ReplyDeleteCheryl, my nerves are so frazzled. That's all.
DeleteI'm so glad you are both ok. How scary!
ReplyDeleteMs Sandie,
DeleteIt did scare me, Tommy, too. My nerves are still upset. Thanks. I never can post to your blog.
