I was rear ended this morning on my way to work. We (DS & I) were in very heavy stop-and-go traffic and a younger woman bumped into my car. Thankfully we were going very slowly so it wasn't a big impact. Nobody was hurt. Her car's hood was slightly dented and the paint was rubbed. My bumper is "bumped" in a bit more than it was from the last time it was hit. Oy! (What is it with my car's rearend?!?)
The girl is insured thru her parents and she was a bit shaken up and kept apologizing. I told her accidents happen. Thankfully we were all fine and our cars were still drivable so we could get on with our day.
As a real reminder of that - there was a four car accident about two miles up the highway. Serious. Like fully smashed cars.
I am thankful.
And it looks like I'll be getting a new bumper.
My Car was Hit... Again!

My first car got hit like 10 times (usually when I Was stopped or the car was parked - I have only been hit while moving, once).
All our other cars were just hit when we first bought them. My van has a dent from a hit and run (while parked) the first few days I bought it. The rest were just small taps to the bumpers, but literally when we first got each car. I give up on owning nice things!!
But, I just find how weird how the one car had such bad karma! Not like I had any control over how often my car gets rammed into while parked or stopped.
I am glad no one was hurt!
