I’m so sorry MJ! I hope you are well... more likely on his phone ... phones should be banned from cars!!

Yeh it's a pain. He said he didn't have insurance and I'm wondering how I can check up on that.

I was thinking about this ~ 3rd person is mandatory. He must have that @ least unless he was unlicensed & unregistered as well.

I had that happen to me once and I almost got away. I was stopped and saw them coming too fast. I put the car in gear and tried to get onto the shoulder. I almost made it but they clipped my back end and threw me into a ditch. The only time I have ever experienced an air bag going off. It actually gave me chemical burns on my face. This was a circa 1991 air bag.

Like you I managed to protect everyone else in line by throwing them to the left when they hit me. We were all too close to each other when stopped. I always leave more space now.

Great driving on your part. So sorry you are paying the price for others not paying attention.

Had the worst experience of my driving life with a teenager. I had YD with me & was driving my 1st daughter's bomb on the mainland ~ thank goodness it wasn't an expensive car! We'd just pulled out of a Bunnings car spot [like Home Depot? ~ anyway a hardward/building supplies place], always hugely congested, & had stopped to put on our seat belts when this kid reversed fast out of her parking spot & rammed our rear end. She climbed out & abused us. Obviously she was driving mummy & daddy'd brand new, very expensive car & needed us to take the fall for her carelessness. She kept ringing the house for weeks & abusing whoever she got on the phone ~ until hubby intervened. He's very quiet but he let her know in no uncertain terms she was punching way above her weight!

I'm a careful driver but not overly confident so this really rattled me & I am so paranoid on the road God almost always gives me space all around me. It is so obvious both my girls are insanely jealous of how I drive in this little bubble no matter how much traffic there is. YD would say it's to protect all the other drivers on the road!

The thing I really like about cloud & water is the reflections. So still this morning ~ but not quiet. A swarm of parrots screeching through the tree tops & a crow having a squawk. Heading out to the girls now.

Oh I would have more if I could! lol I still have a ton of horse decor. My husband and I are blending our 2 families and money is beyond tight, so my pickings are few and far between.

I'm still trying to figure out the breed of these 2 chickens...
