just got hit from behind

Don Fernando · 04-08-2009, 08:52 AM

So I am driving on one of the main roads through Amsterdam, trying to get to the highway to visit a customer and I hear a sirene of a policecar. I see that I can't cross the street anymore because of the cop even though I had green lights. The guy behind heard the sirene and was looking where it came from and hit me from behind with 30 mph. The impact pushed me forward and I barely missed the policecar because I hit the brakes with my full weight again and turned the wheel.

No real human damage except for a headache, but the brand new *7 weeks old* company car is a mess and the front of the guy's car had seen better days too.

I am the green line, the policecar is the red line, driving into a one way street on the wrong side.

hope you are ok buddy. I'd prob get checked out just to be safe.

Don Fernando · 04-08-2009, 08:54 AM

I'm ok Bao, thnx, just got the hell scared out of me.

A lot of times people don't feel any effect till a few days after since the initial shock is masked by some adrenaline.

Pics of the cars? Glad you are OK too!

Don Fernando · 04-08-2009, 08:58 AM

Glad that you are ok but I agree with windmill boy that you should get checked out in case there is a hidden injury.

WildBlueSooner · 04-08-2009, 09:00 AM

04-08-2009, 09:00 AM

04-08-2009, 09:03 AM

Glad you're okay Ferdinand, jeez....but do get checked out.

Glad your ok Don.

Don Fernando · 04-08-2009, 09:04 AM

I'll make a call tonight, and go see the doctor tomorrow.

Go see a chiropractor ASAP to mitigate any tissue damage that will form in the next couple of weeks. Go whether you feel any pain or not, or you will later on and the recovery will be much slower...

Hey Ferdinand, didja at least get a reach around?????

Don Fernando · 04-08-2009, 09:07 AM
