My hubby was hit from behind the day before Christmas Eve. There is 5000.00 in damage to his Ram pickup. The other guy driving a Ram as well, had it totaled. My hubby was in so much shock that he never got the driver’s information.
My hubby slowed down for someone turning right. The other driver doing 40 miles an hour did not.
Hubby has learned what a “No-fault” state is. He wanted the barest minimum in insurance. We now eat the 5000.00. The cheap becomes expensive.
The really infuriating thing about these accidents, besides their frequency, is the pure senselessness of it. So much grief and loss can result from a decision that is essentially infantile, a childish belief that “I can handle it.” It is just subhumanly stupid.
The drunk who caused this tragedy would be better off dead and the people of Ohio should make sure that he thinks so too.
