Yeah, it’s been quite a while since and many of those who read this blog will have already seen pictures, but here are a few from our run in with drunk driver as well as the same brief rundown of the situation:
Here are pictures from Britain and My accident with the drunk driver. She rear ended us at more than 30 miles per hour. We were stopped at a red light. We were pushed about 10 yards forward after she skidded about 30 yards. She hit us strait on in the rear and then she didn't put on her brake or go into park before trying to get out and re-hit us lightly and stopping in the position shown in the pictures. The worst part of the whole deal is that she ran off. Literally, she ran off, with her beer cans as evidence to make this a horrible hit-and-run. Both Britain, the unborn baby, and I are well enough. Jumbled, sore, and tired, yes, but we are okay.

This is the second, more mild impact position. The intoxicated lady didn’t think to put on the brakes and re-ran into us at a slow speed.
Obviously, her car (possibly stolen I might add) didn’t make it out as well. The van drove off with only $150 of damages (new tailpipe and new taillight casing). Of course that’s to get it drivable again…the back end is smashed in and priced at over $1,700 to fix…not worth it for a $400 vehicle…
