Ok. Back from GP, a bit calmer than i was.
Was going down a road by us with many junctiony cross road bits along it. I had right of way.
Woman I thought was just edging forward to get a better view carried on going straight across in front of me (visibility is always hell there with the cars parked etc). I slammed on the brakes, but knew there was no way I was going to stop in time. Was going about 20-25mph before braking.
Not much visible damage to my car, big smush in her passenger side.
I have whiplash, doc says it is very very tense (funny that), and has given me codeine. Dude was in the car, but didn't bat an eyelid. I do need to get a new car seat though - please go and give opinions in "products"
Courtesy car coming tomorrow morning. Hoping demon car from hell is a write off - will get more insurance money for it than we ever would selling the bloody thing.
