CRASH: Chance to do right thing
My son was involved in the multiple car accident on I-90 near the Highway 41 exit last Wednesday. The main part of the accident was unfolding directly in front of him, he was able to swerve around cars as they slid and bounced, after making it through he pulled off the side of the road in his red Toyota Celica, turned on his flashers and paused a second to compose himself before getting out of his car to help if needed. Luckily he paused.
Just then a vehicle, he believes white, hit the driver side of the car and drove off. The impact was enough to rip off the side mirror, dent the front fender, and push the tire forward bending the front axle. The car was un-driveable.
The car is fixable, but he has to pay the $500 deductible for an accident that wasn't his fault. This is an open letter to the person who hit him. Hopefully you'll read this and do the right thing. You have to know what you did, the damage to your vehicle has to be noticeable. It's up to you.
