That was close!
« Reply #-1 on: August 08, 2012, 11:47:27 AM »
My wife calls me to say she was in an accident. Thank god everyone was ok. She was driving in the fast lane and heard a bang then almost lost control of her SUV. She was very startled and pulled off the freeway. The guy who hit her followed her off the freeway. He stated that a car moved into his lane and he moved to avoid him and hit my wife's vehicle. Of course that other guy never stopped. My kids were in the back in their car seats. Everyone be careful out there....

Thanks for the kind comments everyone.

This is a 2006 Trailblazer and it will be the 4th time in the body shop! Same place has fixed it 3 other times.

My wife is a magnet for accidents :o

Be safe out there...
