BradT Posted December 28, 2008 Share #1 Posted December 28, 2008 Thanks Goodness Well I boo-booed again and I am very sorry. Today we went for ride, actually heading down to Carl's with Rhonda, my mother in law, sister on law and 4 yr old niece. The fog was horrible, and we never made it. The fog was so bad at times it was tough to see the end of the hood. As I was driving south I was looking for the stop sign as I was familiar with the road, and by the time I saw the sign it was too late, car would not stop, and I entered the intersection. We collided with the another car. Our right front corner hit the left front of his car, and he ended up in a ditch which dropped about 5 feet, and I was spun around. Rhonda, my mother in law and myself were all put in ambulances and sent to the hospital for xrays. Rhonda hit her head on the side window and has a good goose egg on her head also pretty sore in the chest. Her sister also banged her head, not that bad but is also sore. Rhonda's mom has a sprained wrist, and some muscle aches as she is 70 yrs old, but you would never know it. I have a cracked rib and some sore muscles. MY niece got a nice teddy bear from the fireman and she is fine. Even the 4 people in the other car are okay. Thanks to Brick (Darryl and Rhonda) for coming to get us at the hospital and getting to the accident scene quickly to remove some of our valuables. And I am very glad no one was seriously hurt. Pics of my car attached and this is the one I got only 3 months ago and have managed over 12,000 km on it, dam I liked that car. Also one pic of the car we hit. BRad PS: And Swifty when offering my wife a place to stay safe, do you think she deserves more than the cot. Oh yah another bloody ticket for running a stop sign.

mini-muffin Posted December 28, 2008 Share #3 Posted December 28, 2008 Glad nobody was seriously hurt. Do you think they'd let you out of the ticket since the fog was so bad. Just a thought, might be worth a try anyway. Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leadwolf56 Posted December 28, 2008 Share #7 Posted December 28, 2008 Brad, Glad you're all ok. Too bad about the car. We had bad fog here too. Rain has melted all the ice but they say it's going to do it again tomorrow night. Lots of accidents here the last couple of days. Hope you can get out of the ticket due to the fog.

86er Posted December 28, 2008 Share #9 Posted December 28, 2008 Glad Y'all are ok, Brad. Sucks about the car. You gotta cut Swifty some slack. The Browner is probably in the flat and a cot is all he has left to offer!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibents Posted December 28, 2008 Share #13 Posted December 28, 2008 Glad to hear your all OK Brad, you're going to be sore the next couple of days, I take it wasn't a 4 way stop sign! The way the front end of the car is bent he must have been moving at a good pace, lucky the front took most of the impact could have been much worse if T-boned.

Gary N. Posted December 28, 2008 Share #14 Posted December 28, 2008 Gees Brad. take it easy on Rhonda and the in-laws eh. Sorry about your car but glad you are all OK. Also sorry about your ticket but you better fight it or else your insurance might be unaffordable. You don't want the bike insurance to go through the roof either.

Guest BluesLover Posted December 28, 2008 Share #17 Posted December 28, 2008 Brad - glad to hear that everyone is ok. That fog yesterday was quite something for sure. Take care and heal well. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted December 28, 2008 Share #18 Posted December 28, 2008 Brad, I'm sincerely sorry that this happened to you and your family. Looking at the pictures, I think you are lucky that nobody was hurt worse than they were. I'm sure there will be some aches and pains. Yes, it was a nice car but it can be replaced and the important thing is that you are all relatively OK. We will keep you in our prayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bummer Posted December 28, 2008 Share #19 Posted December 28, 2008 Wow. Brad. That sucks. At least nobody was seriously hurt. You guys take care of yourselves and heal up quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetnothing Posted December 28, 2008 Share #20 Posted December 28, 2008 Brad, Yea, the car was nice, but you will find another one. After talking with Rhonda, and her not knowing about her Mom, that was the biggest scare! Glad to hear no one was majorly hurt! Take care of that goose egg on Rhonda's head...that is scarry!! Now is the time you all need to depend on your girls:rotf::rotf:Sorry, it sounded good! Wooosp, sorry to make you laugh! As I told Rhonda, if you guys need anything...like taking Mom home, or anything, we are here for yous! Only a phone call away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradT Posted December 28, 2008 Author Share #21 Posted December 28, 2008 Thanks for the well wishes. Rhonda managed to find some grey and purple eye liner for her left eye to match the right eye she banged which is swollen, happens to match my Purple bike. The bump on her fore head is a pretty blue, like her eyes. Again thanks Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take care, glad nobody was seriously hurt. Looks like the car is toast though. Hope your new insurance rates:mo money: dont break you...........As for the ticket, throw yourself on the mercy of the court.........I drove in fog like that once, worst place to do it, it was on the BRP...........Scared the crap outta me and the family. Never again............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
