Smash!

More excitement than I needed today. After being tailgated by a woman in a minivan, down my residential street, I got a nice big dent in the back of my car. She was obviously in a hurry, and my 30 mph on Lime Ave. wasn’t fast enough for her. Then when I didn’t make my right hand turn, because a car was coming, she smashed into me. Yes, we are fine, and not hurt, but after taking somebody’s name, car insurance and license number down, is saying “thank you” the appropriate thing? I appreciate that she gave me all of her information, after yelled at her for tailgating me, but I don’t really have any thanks for her, now that I have to spend time on the phone with insurance companies, and worry about getting my car repaired before I drive it. There could possibly be some damage to the wheel or suspension underneath. Anyway, let’s hope the rental car is a nice color.
