Today a car pulled out on me

So I picked the kids up from school today and I was doing 40mph down a 50mph road and a car pulled out on me.

It was awful, a huge bang, my kids were screaming 😢.

Both cars written off and the other party has accepted fault.

We have all been checked out and other than a bruised sternum (me) we are all okay.

I can’t stop hearing the bang it just came out of nowhere 😢.

No idea how I’m getting the kids to school tomorrow hoping I get a courtesy car soon.

I’m so pleased my children are okay. Feeling tearful.

Happened to a car dh was in a few weeks ago.
Go easy on yourself. You may feel worse tomorrow (dh had a huge bruise where his seatbelt had kicked in).

Hope you all recover soon.

Thank you, might have a bath as definitely no appetite for dinner tonight.

Horrible experience, you’ll find yourself going over it as you process what happened. No one was seriously hurt—- that’s the main thing. Cars can be replaced. Soak in a bath, listen to some music or read, try to relax. You’ll probably ache more tomorrow but hopefully pass in couple of days.

Thank you both. My neck is now really starting to feel it but I’m definitely feeling a bit calmer.
