[Spridgets] Hang up and drive, Pt 4

[Ron Soave]

So...we have:
1) Mom's totaled Mercedes, 2007
2) My best friend's mom, Doreen Cassidy, killed 2007
3) My truck rear-ended

and....
4) My truck essentially totalled today 

all by people (of a single gender, I may add to inevitable abuse) on cellphones. Today's episode in stupidity involves me on a one lane road in my F-150, 50 feet downstream of a 4 way stop, I go to make a right into the dentist office parking lot, and she decides to pass me ON THE RIGHT, ON THE GRASS and t-bones my right front wheel with associated damage to fender, door, bumper, etc. Not a glancing blow, but a t-bone. The comment from the other driver as the officer wrote her citation after citation was, "well, I was going straight and he turned right." 

And I had a cracked tooth, to boot. Everyone's ok, thankfully.

Looking at a new tow vehicle.
