Traffic Guy in Traffic Accident - Coincidence?

posted in Life and Whatnot |


Don’t you people realize that I am supposed to REPORT on the traffic problems not CREATE them?
Yeah, in case you haven’t heard, I got into a fender bender yesterday. Nothing too major at this point but  my poor Honda has a busted back bumper (if you can call that fiberglass/plastic shield a bumper) and I have a sore back.  The guy that hit me was very apologetic and he does have insurance so I am sure everything will work out all right.
WHAT HAPPENED: You know there is nothing like getting hit from behind  to snap you out your everyday routine.  People have asked if I saw the truck coming. No, I was at a  stoplight behind 3 or 4 cars just listening to the radio. In fact, my first thought was that somebody had hit the truck that hit me which caused a chain reaction. We pulled off to the parking lot and I got his name and insurance info.  He said he wasn’t paying attention. Dude, it’s a busy intersection at quitting time. I think you need to start paying attention.
Well, I’m off to call Brian Loncar or Jim Adler. Wish me luck!

    Did you ask the person, “Don’t you know who I am? I’m Jim Ribble!”

    :-)

    Seriously, I’m glad you’re OK.

    Actually I told him I was Chip Waggoner and an expression of fear came over his face as he quickly searched for his insurance card.
