Last Sunday Rie and I decided to take some time out together. I wanted to go to Holland for a quiltshow and we would do some sightseeing afterwards.
On the way to Eindhoven, we passed some roadworks, only one lane was open. So cars had to slowdown. As we were moving at about 10 km/hr I saw in my review mirror a Volvo with trailer advancing to rapidly. I hid my brakes hard and did not slam into the car in front of me although he pushed me pretty hard.
Nobody harmed.We filled out papers and I was able to continue driving, Rie and I although a little shook up, did have a nice day.
The next few days were spend calling the insurance, garage and filling out papers. By Friday I was notified that the car was considered a total loss.
Evaluation: My car was our car: I drive my parents at least once a week, Favian borrowed my wheels about once a week, Eva was practising driving with it and Rie enjoyed driving along every once and while in Airco.
"Sigh" How a moment of unattention can change people's life.
