Got a call from my wife today telling
me she just was in a car accident.
As she was turning left, a woman on
a moped crashed into the car.
Luckcily she wasn't hurt, only some
damage
to the car, which I hope the insewerance
will cover. (Close up of the damage at the bottom)
When my wife checked on the woman to
see if she was hurt, she said that she was fine, and that she didn't have
to call for emergency services.
As my wife called the police to come
over to make an accident report for the insurance, the lady picked up her
moped and took off, the witnesses who saw the accident also took off once
they learned that my wife was calling the police...
Unfortunately she only got a partial
of the license plate.
What's even more 'fun', is the fact
that a couple of years ago our government in their infinite wisdom decided
that it was time to reward byciclists and moped drivers for their total
disregard of even the most basic traffic laws, by making the driver of
a car always liable for the damages in case of an accident with a bicycle/moped.
Unless you can proof that they pretty much threw themselves in front of
your car on purpose.

Picked up my wife from the airport today after spending a week in sweden on a company sponsored trip to FulufjÀllet National Park Sweden.
I really should set 2+ alarms when my wife's not around (preferably on opposite ends of the bedroom out of arms reach.
