    Sorry to hear that, glad to know that ya'll are ok, don't let it bother you. Stuff happens sometime. Deal with it, drive on, and DON'T dwell upon on it.

    *****HUGS**** to both of you

    I haven't had an actual accident yet (knocking on all the wood in sight!), but I did have an incident that made me scared to drive for a full day afterwards. You can do it... guess it's all part of learning. Glad you're both okay and that the other driver was very cool.

    It sure does!! Gary hadn't had a single violation on his record for over 30 years... then it all started on his trainer's truck and a fancy headlight his trainer just HAD to have - sigh... I don't think this will go on his DMV record, but CSA points?

    Trying not to dwell... however we will be reminded of it for at least 10 weeks... at a $150/week - OUCH!!

    Thank you for the HUG!! Yeah I keep replaying the crunching headlight over and over in my head...post tramatic crunch disorder?? :biggrin_25523:

    I can't believe it!!! I've read this entire thread and it culminates in an accident! I'm glad property and pride were the only things injured. Try not to let it rob you of your confidence. I think it's awesome that y'all are achieving your goals. I'm going to make my wife read your story as proof that a wife CAN team with her husband with out strangling him.






















    You haven't strangled him have you? :biggrin_2554:

    Most wives would never strangle their husbands......they would use a pillow while he slept.
