It was on May 25, 2000, at 7:30pm. I was traveling east on Texas
Highway 10 in Hurst, Texas in my 2000 Toyota Corolla. Right when
I was going through the intersection of highway 10 and precinct
line road a gray Honda Odyssey mini Van ran the red light.
I slammed on the brakes, but I could stop in time and I slammed
into the rear driver side of the van causing it to spin several
times in to a light pole. My little Corolla ended up in the middle
of the intersection backwards. I was just going down the street
to McDonalds, and though "Nah, I wont need my seat belt"
WRONG!!
The force was SO great, it through me in to the steering wheel
causing me to dislocate my jaw and bend the steering wheel back.
I jammed my knee in to the dash, which sliced my knee wide open.
I had 3 broken ribs and Also the back of my head hit the roof
of my car giving me a concussion and knocking me unconscious!
When I awoke, I was on a back board in the ER. With my whole
family over me. I so sore, and I just wanted to go home. After
6 months I was fully healed. I still have a scar on my knee and
really bad head aches. From then on, I ALWAYS wear my seat belt,
no matter how short the distance!
