For the first time in my life, I hit another driver this morning. Not a devastating crash. No airbags, no emergency services. But I did mangle the front end of my Civic a bit and crunched the rear bumper of the very nice (and very new) Eclipse in front of me. SO the next tow hours was taken up by the police officer, tow truck driver, body shop guy, insurance agent and rental car agent. All of them were very nice and I was only about 90 minutes late to work.
I’ve never had an at-fault accident before. I have slid off the road in icy conditions and smacked a curb. I’ve been rear-ended two or three times but I’ve never made a driving error that damaged someone else’s car.
First time for everything I guess.
