Topic	What's the worst you've ever been injured?
brestugo 04/25/21 8:00:09 PM #37:	tenlaar2 posted... Driving as a teenager, after a winter storm and on a road so windy and dangerous that years later it was completely removed from existence and redone. Hit black ice (which I really did, cop verified and reported it) going around the first turn of an S curve and skidded into the left lane with an SUV coming around the turn right in front of me, got back in the right lane, couldn't make the turn, went over a ditch and through a driveway and hit a tree in the middle of a yard dead on the driver's side. Steering column pinned my legs and it took the jaws of life to get my door open and then again to pull the front of the car off my legs. Then the cop hopped in the back of the ambulance and wrote me a ticket for failure to maintain control of my vehicle before they took me to the hospital. Left femur and three bones in the left ankle broken. I've got a titanium rod in the femur. Few weeks in the hospital, few months sleeping downstairs in a hospital bed with a big leg cast. Had to use a walker for a while, physical therapy, all that fun stuff. Missed more than a quarter of 11th grade. Hope you had a full recovery and that all is well now. My main reason for replying though is to ask this: Did that asshole cop's ticket hold up in court? --- Not everyone is suitable to kill a lion - Maasai proverb. <cite>brestugo posted [p:953225117] in What's the...
