I am a Police Officer in New Hampshire. I dropped off my cruiser
to a friend of mine at a Ford dealer for some work to be done
to it. I took his car to go to a Doctors appointment. I never
made it there and ended up being brought to the hospital in my
cruiser, with my friend driving....
October 29, 2001. I came up to a stop sign. I looked left. I
looked right. I was going to go straight. Then, I look up and
remember saying to myself, " I think that car is in the
air." All I remember seeing is a red 'thing' coming at the
front of the car and then hearing one hell of a loud bang! When
I finally removed my airbag from my face and figured out how
to get my now mangled sunglasses off my head, I look to my left
and see a man hanging upside down, or was I upside down? Well,
you know how when your at a stop sign, and the car next to you
starts moving and you get that feeling its you moving and you
jam on your brakes and its not helping. Well that was me, I didnt
know who was upside down, so I reached up and pushed against
the roof of the car. Once I figured out it was him, I got out
the passenger side of the car and now see a green pick up truck
backwards into a stone wall. Mind you I'm not working, so my
manners were not what you'd expect. I stick my head into this
guys car, look at him upside down, and make sure he's alive.
To my suprise, he was. Then I asked him as politley as I could,
"Did you see the f%^&ing stop sign a$$hole?? You dumb
f&ck!!!" And no, I didn't help him. I went and checked
on the elderly guy that this moron involved.
What happened was:
The green truck had the right of way on the main road. I, and
the idiot in the Ford Probe had stop signs. Probe man drives
through the stop sign, so fast he got airborn over the main road,
T-boned by the truck which was doing at least 40, flipped over,
still in the air, then lands on his roof , spins,and crashed
into the front of my car and still had momentum to push me back
about 15 feet, and then sideways. In the pictures, the right
side of the Probe is what the truck hit, then it rolled over
and hit me on the left side. Between the two door panels was
about 18 inches of room after this.
The Probe, still had a loan through Ford on it, no insurance,
and this guy owns, or should I say owned a house. Oh yeah, he
didn't see the stop sign, he was looking at his pager. Well,
that page cost him I guess about $50,000.00. Did I mention he
had no insurnace? All vehicles were totalled, and plus medical
expenses, and yes, I sued him.
My friend who was working on my cruiser came to the scene, as
I requested him to do so. Little did I think he'd drive my cruiser
there, but never the less.... I was taken to the hospital, in
my cruiser, with him driving. A few months later, I was at a
Domestic Disturbance call and fell through a rotted porch. My
friend who drove me to the hospital after the car accident was
doing a ride-a-long with me. He again drove me to the hospital,
in my cruiser.
