Few days ago I was involved in a crash accident, lucky for me
there’s no permanent damage (nothing that the insurance company won’t cover up), being the blogger type of person I thought it would make a nice little post – after all… with my Neck and Back killing me, there’s nothing else I can do.

1. Driving, 60 – 70km/h
2. Hoooooooooold!! (My partner – the driver, screams at me)
3. BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKES (just imagine the sound…)
4. BOoOoOoOm (well, it was more like CLuacherkaaakaka)
5. Arrrg, shit, bugger,#$% (Me cursing, radio with a stupid song still playing, car’s engine got stuck and screaming, strong smell of burned plastic/brake pads)
6. Opening sit belts, Cant move… hurst like hell in the left side of the ribs, back and neck.
7. Thinking: Shhitt…
8. Thinking: Dammint… my new laptop…
9. Thinking: At least I remembered to pull new underwear today.
10. Radio still playing stupid song (a whole new stupid song).
11. Looking around, realizing we’re upside down, the wheels are
not attached to the car anymore, the steering wheel is spinning freely, and the
drive shaft is on the road after being ripped from the car
12. Trying to move, it hurts like hell… not moving anymore.
13. Trying to find my cell phone, eyeglasses and assessing damage.
14. Nothing seems to be broke as I can move all parts of the body,
not seems to bleeding and my partner is already out there talking on the phone with the police and the ambulance driver.
15. Finally, the radio stopped working… probably short circuit or something…
16. People coming to me, asking if I can move or if I want an ambulance
17. Just sitting there staring at the Traffic Jam we’ve made, trying to catch my breath.
18. Door opened, Paramedic asking me if I can walk or not
19. I’m being half polled, half pushing myself to the stretcher,
20. Taking general details from me, Blood type, contact details, ID number address and so on…
21. Moving me to a second ambulance (god knows why…)
22. Taken to the hospital
23. Taken into X-ray, and being asked a lot of questions…
24. Calling my mom to calm her down, saying I’m ok and telling her NOT to come, I’ll take a cab back.
25. 5 minutes later, she DID come, can’t complain, it took me nearly 15 minutes to walk 200 meter to the car.

This whole thing might SEEMS to be long, but in reality, parts 1 to 21 took less than 10 minutes, and the rest took another 2 hours (as it takes forever to do something at the hospital).

I’m suppose to go to the police station on Sunday (or whenever I can move again) I hope they’ll have some pictures of the car as I would really like to post them up… the car is HUGE, it’s Toyota Hilux 2007 (similar to the one you can see at the bottom) it was brand new, we’ve received it only 4 months ago. The car who crashed into us was a small Mazda 3, both cars are “Total Loss”, and one was
hurt (except me) from the accident.
