Traffic accident today!

[VERO1]

First one since 10th grade. (really long time ago).

I was headed back to the office in my mail truck, approached an intersection, young girl in car sitting at stop sign and talking on her cell phone, she decide I was going to turn (I wasn't), so she drove into the side of the truck. No injuries thankfully to anyone.

I have to attend mandatory driver training now. She told me at the scene that this was her fourth accident, she is 23 years old.

Maybe it's time she learned the phrase (Hang up and drive!)

Mandatory driver training? They gonna teach you how to read the minds of stupid drivers? What a waste of time.

Glad to hear you were not injured.

Grrr. I'm getting SO fed up with people on the phone! Especially when I'm on my bike with no cage around me.

Every time I'm darn near killed by some obliviot, it's because they can't get off the phone long enough to check their blind spot. Someday somebody's gonna get hurt, whether or not I'm in an accident, if you know what I'm saying. And I think you do.

I completely understand that sentiment.

I had a TRUCKER cross the double yellow on me the other day while on the phone.

I pulled over and called his company on the spot. This was a twisty back road, not an open highway.

[Guest db99wj]

why do you have to attend driver training? Is it a corporate thing?

[VERO1]

Worse than a corporate thing, it"s a "postal" thing. I also just got a call from a "medical clinic" telling me I was elgible for a free medical exam because of the accident. I guess when I called them a bunch of ambulance chasing quacks that cost me my free exam since they haung up really quick!
