The Effect of Moving to Another City or Country
The Uninsured Permit Holder Hit My Car It was a very quiet afternoon at my place, so I couldn’t hear anything from outside. Later on, I heard a car noise so I opened the curtain in my living room to check whose car it was.
I saw my neighbor’s visitor who parked her car next to mine. It didn’t take long for my neighbor to come out, and they started talking in the parking lot. An accident comes in many different ways at any different times and places.
Back in December of 2012 at around 4:20 P.M, my car was hit by a friend of my neighbor. My husband was in the kitchen, and I was watching TV in the living room with our daughter. I didn’t know what was happening when my husband suddenly ran out of the kitchen and said that someone had hit my car.
My husband ran outside, and yelled for the other car to stop. The driver did not stop and she almost hit my husband. My husband told our neighbor that she has to call her friend back, or we would call the police, so she called her friend and she came back.

Driskell II
When our neighbor’s friend came to see us, she kept saying she was sorry because she didn’t notice that she had hit my car. I was so angry with her because of how she responded to the whole incident. It made me more furious when someone knocked on our door and handed me her written statement about what she saw. I found out through the written statement that our neighbor’s friend lied to us.
She knew in the first place that she had hit my car, but she didn’t care to stop to take responsibility of what she did. Instead, she was laughing with her friend inside the car, and drove at the highest rate of speed through our place. I was mad and wanted to slap her, so my husband sent me back inside the house. I just couldn’t hold my anger towards people who could have done the right thing, but chose to run off from the mess they created.
My husband called the Highway Patrol to assist us in getting all her information. When the officer came, I learned

    Just as you should do after you rear-end another driver, you should always contact both the police and an auto accident attorney directly after this type of accident occurs. Also, politely ask witnesses to stick around and speak to the officer and your attorney. If they have to leave before anyone else is on the scene, then ask for their names and phone numbers, so they can report what they saw at a later…

    My mom never screamed at me before and when she screamed he blamed me for letting him go outside without his permission. One sunny day, we were remodeling the living room so it can be more babyproof now that my brother was taller and could walk and run perfectly. We left the door open because it was too cold in the living room. We were moving the couch as we told Andres to move over so we don’t locate the couch on his feet. We were so busy moving the furniture that we totally forgot the baby of the family was walking towards the door. When we put the couch in our desired spot, we noticed Andres walking toward the street. We ran after him as quickly as we could as we saw a car moving in Andres’s direction. My dad sprinted like a track and field athlete towards his baby and caught him right in time. All of a sudden, my mom turned to me and blamed me for this incident. I felt like my side of the story wasn’t considered when I explained she told me to help her with the couch and it was really Andres’s fault. She couldn’t believe I was blaming a baby so she sent me to my room. I ran to my room crying, feeling as if Andres was the favorite child and I wished that I never had a…

    In hindsight, I do realize how big of a mistake it was to get behind the wheel that night. I should never have considered driving myself home, let alone a vehicle with some of my best friends in it. With that comes a very sincere apology to both you and the entire community. Had the Law Enforcement Officer not stopped me, there is no telling if that night could have ended in an accident or even worse.…

    We were finally ready to leave and began walking to the car, which during the walk I remembered I needed to stop and get gas. So we headed to the gas station, filled up CoCo, which was my first vehicle, and were off to the dinner. In order to get to the dinner we had to get on the I-10 to I-110. We started off at great start on the highway. Crazily, only ten minutes into the ride we faced complications. While driving in the middle lane on I-10, an eighteen wheeler truck felt the need that it had to get over from the left lane into the middle. With the position I was in I could neither get over to my right nor to my left due to other vehicles being there. There was also a vehicle behind me. The truck began veering over to the right into my lane. I began to honk my horn and slow down as much as possible without causing the car behind me to hit me. I assumed the truck would realize by my honking of the horn it just was not the best time for him to come over into the lane I was in. Unfortunately he did not, and by the time the vehicle behind had gotten over for me to slow down even more the back of the truck hit the front of my car. The truck was lower than usual and the back hit the hood of my car sending my car spinning three times thereafter smacking into the barrier on the bridge. Initially, I was frozen in my seat thinking how fast it escalated but how slow it felt as far as spinning and hitting the…

    Two months after I get my driver’s license, I get my very first speeding ticket. What a great way to start out driving, right? Well my parents didn’t think so. So, I’m driving home from school on this I guess you could call it a “hilly” road where the bumps are fun to ride over when speeding. It was all fun and games until I spot the cop parked at the end of the street just watching me. There was no use in slowing down. I knew he’d already clocked me at 50 in a 25. There wasn’t anyone on the road besides me, but in the passenger seat sat my best friend. I was also driving through a neighborhood. I put a lot of people in danger. I know the whole situation could have been retained if I had followed the law.…
