Thanks you guys.
Roy... I let Swordy know you said hi. He wants to know if you're going to Moab.

Dylan... thanks, but an older one is all the budget can work with these days.

Ron... I saw this guy in the rear view mirror. I knew he wasn't going to stop. I did the exact thing everyone says not to do. I tensed every bone in my body, held on for dear life, and pushed my foot on the brake praying he wouldn't push me into the car in front of me. The next day I didn't have a muscle that wasn't sore. OMGolly did I hurt. I had bruises in places I couldn't understand. My arms felt like I carried the world in them for at least a week. My legs wouldn't let me walk up stairs. I had a bad back from a previous accident 20 years ago, so I knew I needed that checked out. I'm ok, and the bruises are all gone now.

I can tell you all I drive differently now. There isn't a signal I sit at without looking in the mirror to see if the guy behind me stops. I also seem to stop at least 2 cars length behind the car in front of me. My kids are finding it amusing that I talk to the drivers in other cars too......"please don't hit me, please don't hit me"

Footnote: CHP report came out today. The guy that hit me... he left the scene before the CHP got there. The lady in the mini van got his lic plate number. I'm sure anyone could have followed him home... follow the dripping fluids. Get this.... the owner of the vehicle says it is his car, but he wasn't driving it. AMAGINE THAT?
