This past Saturday evening we had just left the house to head to town. We were about mile from the house when a guy driving a Ford Ranger decided to make a left turn right in front us without even stopping first. He just cut the wheel to left trying to pull into a church parking lot where he supposed to meeting someone. It happened so fast, I never got a chance to hit the brakes till the impact happened. We hit him doing about 55mph. We were both transported to a local hospital and the driver was as well. Never getting a chance to speak with county officers about the driver of the Ranger so we couldn't get any answers till Monday when we picked up the accident report. The driver of the Ranger had a suspended license, no insurance and was 3 times over the legal limit. An open bottle of vodka was in his truck but, he told police he only had 2 beers before driving. Typical of a drunk driver. As for the people he was meeting in the parking lot. They were the previous owners of the truck and was giving them the last payment he owed on the truck. The drivers side door and back door got damaged because after the impact, he spun all the way around in the air and you can see the tire mark on the top part of the door. The drivers door window was broke out with my shoulder and my head. We both pretty much walked way with bumps, bruises and pulled muscles. Thank you KIA for your safety and airbag placement. I also think that my Mother, who passed away 2 months ago, was watching over us as well.
The real kick in the d*ck was, on Monday right before we picked up the accident, her mom called told us the driver of the Ranger is my Girlfriends cousin. She was taken out the KIA by EMT's so she never saw the driver of the Ranger or we would known that night. Pics below.......
