Good day gone bad
Well today the mail came and I finally got my tax return. I got to the bank before they closed, which is always good! Had some stuff to do around the house, everything was going good. I then went to move my car trailer back to where I usually park it, pulled out of the driveway about a truck length to aim the trailer better, I check to make sure nothing was behind me, I see a set of headlights coming, put it in reverse start to back up, then I hear screaching tires, the car skid about 30 feet and came to a stop in the center of my wheel. I checked the truck after all the paper work was complete and thankfully enough, I am pretty sure the only thing that got messed up is my rim and center cap. I will be taking a look at it in the daylight tomorrow and will bring it to an alignment shop to make sure everything is ok and just be safe for insurance reasons. Thankfully no one was hurt. My poor truck, hit twice in less than a month and neither was my fault, damn women drivers!

wow, how dark was it? dark enough for headlights i assume you had yours on, how do you not see a big truck in the street? the only reason accidents happen is because someone wasnt paying attention, she was probably texting or something stupid.

It was dark, I believe it was around 8 o'clock. My lights go on automatically, I cant not have them on! My road is a joke, people always speed on it. The cops put up one of those large digital boards that say "Your Speed" and clock how fast you are actually going, that is a joke. I am not lying when I tell you people use it to see how fast they can get up to until they pass it. The guys on steet bikes use it the most, not that I dont like street bikes but 70 in a 35 is rediculous.

I know there is a real name for it but I want to get one of those amber flashing lights for the top of my truck. I wish I would have had one before this happened.
