Got rear ended today!

[barry]

Well, I headed for my regular Dr.'s appointment this morning. I was just on the outskirts of the city in a 45 MPH zone when a car in front of me stops all of a sudden, I hit my brakes and get stopped about 2 feet from his bumper. I had no more than stopped when traffic starts to move again but before I take my hands off of my brake lever the car behind me slams into the back of my van knocking my wheelchair out of its' lockdown (yes again!) and I end up much closer to my steering wheel and dashboard than was comfortable.
Damage to me: maybe a bump and bruise.
Damage to my van: dented bumper.
Watching tow truck driver pry my trailer hitch & ball out of the grill of a Crown Victoria which I assume was owned by the parents of the young man driving...PRICELESS!!!

Glad to here that you are O.K., and that you actually got a little bit of enjoyment out of the ordeal. It could have been so much worse.. You must have a bullseye on your van..

I'm glad you are doing okay Barry!! 

[lightsoutcalls]

Good to hear you're alright.  Those receiver hitches are bad news to incoming vehicles and shins of unobservant pedestrians.
