Damn Deer

Most people already know that my night vision isn't the greatest. So it kind of amazes me that I still manage to drive to and from karaoke because of it. Another thing most people know is that one of the local streets that is by my house is notorious for deer due to it being so close to the dam. And a combination of the two as I learned last night is not a good thing. Although the damage wasn't extreme, it was enough to cause the driver side door not to be able to open properly.

But what's really interesting is, there's a small eraser size hole that looks like it was punctured then popped out as well. Something a deer would not make. Hmmm. I'm kinda wondering if my van was vandalized while I was at karaoke last night. it wouldn't surprise me and there have been numerous vandalized vehicles in the area lately.

Just me Rambling

If you've ever been in a car accident then you know how worrisome they can be. You worry whether everyone is okay in both vehicles and then you worry about how bad the damage is on your vehicle and theirs. And finally, you worry if your car insurance is going to skyrocket because of the accident. I've been in enough accidents to know how nerve wracking they can be. I think the worst was when the car hydroplaned and a pool stick came 2 inches from killing me. Yep, a true story.

One of the first things I noticed when my husband got his new truck was the major fender dent on the driver side of the vehicle. It had been made from the previous owner and I wonder what went through their mind when the accident happened. And then it dawned on me that they had obviously never had the damage repaired.

So I wonder did they not have the right cover to fix the damage or maybe they were at fault and the insurance company refused to repair it. Or could it have just been that they blew the money on what they considered to be more important matters rather than taking it to an auto body repair shop. We will probably never know and I'm sure in their mind it just means it's something they no longer have to worry about.
