Ooops I had a minor accident

cat_mioux — Mon, 14 Apr 2014 08:16:34 GMT

I was driving home from lunch with a friend and I was almost home after a 45 min drive. The sun was right in my eyes and I hadn't brought my sunglasses. The glare was so bad I could barely see a thing.

I was waiting to turn left and when the arrow turned green I proceeded to turn but scraped a (->)sign on the median strip. I have a long but minor scratch along the side my car. I was able to snap my side mirror back into place.

But it it an offence to damage a sign? I didn't go back to have a look at the sign because this was on a busy multi-lane intersection during peak traffic and I couldn't stop.

Are you okay?

Yes I'm fine, thank you. 🙂 Not even shaken up. It was just a minor thing.

I'm hoping I won't get into trouble for 'leaving the scene of an accident'. I'd say the sign might have a dent in it.

Hit and run, Mioux?

My car had a close and personal encounter with the carport last week and is now missing a side mirror cover which was knocked off. A clip thingy was snapped off so I haven't been able to put it back on.

Was it your carport bluekitty?

Oh dear I hope the sign is doing okay.

Yes, it was! How did you know? A super power, perhaps?

I'll watch the news to see if there is an update on that poor sign.......tsk, tsk.

Cat, it is the signs fault not yours, it shouldn't have been there at that time of the day. Just forget it and deny all knowledge.

I have just had an accident as well.

I was testing a mild super power that I have had most of my life.

I could always disguise a noisy fart with a well placed cough.

Unfortunately it appears age now has me mixing up solids and gasses......

Ooops I had a minor accident,

Never mind it is quite normal, advancing age does that. 🙂

Oh dear I just got a severe talking to. My friend rang to see if I got home okay and I told her what had happened. She's knows I have cataracts in both eyes. She was not amused when I told her about the stoopid sign. She's on a mission to get me to organise having the surgery done.

Soooo .. that's my next thread

I really didn't need to know about the other 'accident'. Ewwww!
