So I'm coming home from work about 11:30pm tonight. Just picked up some Krispy Kream donuts and I'm about 2 miles from my house. As I'm driving down the road, I look up to see a pair of bright head lights coming up behind me really fast. At first, I thought it was a cop that was going to pull me over for something. Strange, I was driving the speed limit and not breaking any laws. Well, the guy was accelerating and still coming up behind me. Then *BAM*, the jerk rear ends me. So I hold on for dear life and ride it out. I end up flying off to the side of the road and ended up facing the opposite direction. From what I could see in my rear view mirror, I think it was a big white pickup truck. I come to a rest. The guy keep on going and leaves me there on the side of the road for dead. I can't get out of the driver's side door because there is a tree next to me. So, I crawl over and out the passenger side. Well, my car is seriously screwed up. Totaled. I get out my wireless and call 911. Eventually, a cop shows up and takes a report and calls a tow truck. The tow truck arrives and he drags my car up onto his truck bed. After securing my car, the tow truck driver gets a broom and goes out to the street to sweep all the glass from my car away. The cop pulls his car up so that he's blocking the lane the guy's sweeping up. His lights are flashing and I'm waiting for him to give me and what was my car a lift home. Well, this is where it get's interesting. A woman coming down the road goes around the cop car and hits the tow truck guy sending him flying into the air and over her car. It was a horrible thing to see. The guy is screaming and the cop runs over to his aid. In the next 5 minutes at least 6 cop cars show up to completely block off the street. The guy crawls over to the curb and blood is pouring from his head. The woman gets out saying how sorry she is. She looks to be about 18 and tells the cop that she doesn't have her license with her. Finally the paramedic shows up and takes the tow truck guy to the hospital which is right down the street. So, 2 hours after I get rear ended by a hit and runner, I finally get home. So here I am. I was looking forward to a long weekend off since I had Friday off. Now I have no transportation. I am grateful that I wasn't harmed, but the whole situation still sucks.
Just thought I'd share my crappy night.
