Events, Very Recent Events

So I had an event happen to me about 4 hours ago... I was in a car crash. Everyone is OK, just a little shaken up by it.

My mum and I were just driving down this one street, traffic was kinda slow, so we weren't going to fast thankfully, and the lane beside us was at a complete standstill. There was a guy going the other way wanting to make a left hand turn, his visibility wasn't great with all the stopped cars but he thought it was clear for him to turn. It wasn't, he turned right in front of us.

It's all a bit confused, one minute we're just driving, the next there's a car in front of us. Mum slammed on the brakes, cars came together, airbags went off, my glasses fell off or I knocked them off or something, I don't really know. There was a burning smell and some kind of smoke from the airbags, just lots of white and blurriness. I was barely even thinking, just responding to what was going on. The car was stopped, my mum was talking and moving, getting out, probably telling me to do the same. I got my glasses back on, got out and got off the road.

Then followed a very shaky couple hours of dealing with police and insurance and all that. Our car's front end was totally crushed in, the guy's front passenger side dented and the bumper out of shape. He didn't have any passengers with him so no one had been on that side of the car. No one with any injuries thankfully, all just in a bit of shock.

There was a lot of people who stopped to make sure we were okay, see if anyone needed anything, I really appreciate all the compassion shown.

Sitting in my room though things feel almost normal, like it was just some bad dream or something... it's been a strange and crazy day.

Hope you all are well.

DFTBA,
