Slipped while putting the 3rd seats down for the kiddos...
3rd seat fell on her finger... (hurt like hell I guess) Got back in the car and started to feel like she was going to pass out... Pulls off to the side of the road and "does" pass out... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yellowsleep[1].gif) Didn't have time to put the car in park... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yellowsleep[1].gif) The car crossed 4 lanes of busy 90th South in Salt Lake City, at night, in the rain. Cars were spinning honking and two kids were facing backward in the rear seat in terror. She drives up a driveway apron, missed a mailbox and scraped the front fender basically "off" (aluminum on the E500) and whacked the bumper cover on a concrete block post in someone's front yard. A trip to the ICU shows no broken bones. Just a broken car. They had someone looking over them tonight. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) The Holiday fun has just begun...

God Bless that they're alright! Cars are just metal and can be repaired.

Agreed...
She does have a history though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) She's whacked about every car she's ever been in. 914-6 - Drove it up on a curb while leaving the ATM at the bank. Took out the passengers side outer rocker. ML320 - Drove the passengers door into a pile of wood on the driveway while we were building a deck on the old house. Almost the same accident as the 914-6. E320 Wagon - Whacked a deer. E500 Wagon - Whacked a concrete post. Anyone know where I can get a Uni-Mog cheap? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (she sure is cute though...)

Holy Cow , Glad the family is Ok.
A chauffeur is the logical next step. (I believe there may be a 914 limo available) |

Glad to hear she and the kids are OK... very scary situation that could have ended badly...
Thanks for the reminder to be careful and wrap up the kids in their car seats correctly every single time... |

That was like hitting the lottery! You are all very lucky indeed. She is likely going to be very stressed over that one.
Definitely put her in a big SUV like the Expedition or something. And....you won't let her drive the six will you? |

Glad to hear it all ended well. Really scary description you gave. God was looking out for you guys. Maybe now he will call his buddy Santa and have a 76 Vista Cruiser wagon delivered to you in a couple of days.
Merry Christmas, Shoe p.s. You'd probably welcome head trauma if ya had to marry Scotty. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) |
