My lincoln afterwards
I was turning left into the housing sub division where I live after playing golf last monday the 27th.Heavy mid afternoon traffic,two lane street,this guy comes around everyone on the left in a no passing zone,in a firestation zone going 60 to 65 mph.I go to make my turn,he strikes me in the drivers side fender,tears the nose off the car,carreens down the street,catches up with a 3/4 ton dodge ram that was going away from us at 40 mph,hits it in the rear,the truck spins out of control,hits a light pole in front of the fire station,these poor people spill out on the ground and have to be taken away on stretchers.The VW GTI finally stops on the front lawn of the fire station,this guy gets out,he looks like the Geico caveman in dirty clothes and sandals,long hair,beard,the whole deal!
Out of state plates,turns out it wasnt even his car,he borrowed it.Anyway I was in shock so I went ahead and made my turn,fished a five iron out of my golf bag and walked across the street,by then the firemen were pouring out of the station,they relieved me of my golf club so that was that.Yes there is insurance on the GTI,yes I did sustain some injuries due to the severity of the impact,yes I did retain Bill Hurst as my attorney.
Note also,the police told me I may have to wait up to a month for an accident report so I called someone I know in the mayors office and got it in three days,dont get hit in Indy,all they give you is a business card.The guy that hit me,he said he was late for an exam at the local university
and was trying to pass seven cars at once.Im very angry,Im going to sue somebody!!
