My first major car accident

after a few weeks, even months of not writing a log. Today, no yesterday gave me a pretty good reason to write one.

the first car accident when i was driving a car was running in reverse hitting a wall. i smashed our rear left tail light. the second was simpling slightly bumping a Public Utility Vehicle, with virtually no damage.

but yesterday 07-13-06, around 7:30pm was my first hand experience of a major accident, with me as the culprit.

looking before it was already a rainy day, a strong wind and rain shower. after just leaving a friend at her house, we went straight to our other friends house. Sadly, along the way, (i was a bit frautrated over a useless, simple, naive argument) speeding at around 80-100kph, a car from the other lane was about to take the left turn. i hesitated, yet i still stepped on the gas pedal. suddenly, the other car took a right. i was forced to slow down, then i realized that slowing down won't be enough so i stepped on the brakes as hard as i can, only to end up hitting the rear end of the other car.

going out of the car, with a serious face, not getting over my anger. i went to look at the damage. my headlight and park light were shattered, my hood had a bit... of a bend my bumper was chipped. Yet looking at the other car with just scratches made me realized that i might get banned from driving another car for a while. the first thing luckily that came to my mind was to call my relatives, specifically my uncle, telling me that, we have insurance, theres nothing to worry about, get his name and phone number and give your name and phone number then call your dad. my heart started pumping, just thinking about what might the other car owner tell me. and yet it was like he was not worried, and ask me, what should we do now, i need to go. this statement made me feel confident enough to finish the task my uncle told me to. after the exchange of information the other car left.

i was told to go home, i was really expected that i will be scolded by my dad, mom, and uncle. Yet, my dad just said, its ok, these things happen and its raining so i guess the road was slippery. and i was about to fix the car already so its ok i'll call the owner of the other car to make arrangements for the insurance claim. the my mom just said, don't worry about it, i also already had many accidents with the car, so its ok, maybe next time you should drive slower. and my uncle well he didn't talked about the car at all... =P

so i guess the only lesson to learn would be to control myself. they just made my guilt fly, instead of killing me and punishing my in other ways, they just made me guilty... "TAE!"
