I closed out 2025 with a bang – literally. I rear-ended another car, pushing it into another car. Luckily, no one was hurt. The property damage appeared to be limited to one car and to be minimal. I probably shouldn’t write any more details about this until the claim is closed, though I am not anticipating a fight. I don’t intend to.
What I can say –
Everyone was okay. No one was cruel. For the most part, everyone was kind, and the police officers called to the scene were downright sweet. It’s probably a relief on New Year’s Eve when their first call of the night is a minor fender-bender where no one is drunk or hostile – instead, it’s just some nice young people and a dumb old mom who took her eyes off the road for a moment.
Stay safe out there friends, and be kind – even to people like me. We will appreciate it. And when you go on your journey, remember to keep your eyes on the road!
