Just as I stopedI hard a bang, and a tires squel and glass exploding!
This Ford F-250 flies by my right side and stops acroos the
intersection. At that moment I relized that I was just hit in my Dak
:shock: I got out ran around to the back of my truck to check it out.
Just then I heard screeming coming from the F-250.

I ran to the F-250, found what else but a teenage girl driving with 2
other teen grils in there also! Thanks God they were not hurt! Just
covered in broken glass! They were more scared from the shock of it
then any thing.

We call 911, Fireman came, Med-Star showed up. The Driver had glass
down her shirt and pants. and some little cuts. She went in the back of
the med-star unit and got the glass out of shirt and pants . Her mom
came. Cindy and I must have been there for close to 3 hours while all
this took place. Cindy was great with the girls, they were upset big
time due to they were not were they told Mom were they were going
:shock:

Damage to the Ford, Drivers side mirror gone! Driver side window
shattered! 2 black lines on the front fender.

Oh did I luck out today! Just a little coating rubbed off the tail
light guards. Thats wat caused the black lines on the Fords fender. The
mirror must have just caught the touanuo cover and hit into the window
to shatter it.

Cindy is OK, coming home from it Cindy asked if I was OK, I think it
hit me then what happen and close to a major wreak we had! Mean while 2
shots of blackberry brandy and 2 beers later, I think I'm OK now.
:boozer:

FYI: the top 2 photos are from my cell phone camera.
