Have I ever mentioned that unusual things happen to me? Well...they do, and tonight was very unusual. I was driving home with my son after his judo class. We were right behind my husband who drove separately. I noticed that my husband swerved to the right suddenly, and stayed in that lane. I thought it was because he wanted to get off at a different exit. That's when I noticed a camouflaged obstruction.
I saw what looked like a big, brown moving box out of the corner of my eye and swerved to avoid it. I still hit it, but thought it was minor. Since I'm in an SUV, it felt like I had only "nicked" it. It wasn't until my husband signaled for me to pull over that I saw the actual damage and learned that I had not hit a box. I had hit a big, dark brown coach in the middle of the freeway at night.
I had to call the police, and file a collision claim with my insurance. My poor baby was so scared. I hope it doesn't raise my premium much. Fortunately, we're unscathed. What an interesting way to start the weekend...
