Earlier today, my Sister was in a car accident, nothing serious, but damn is this just dumb. OK, my sister was at an intersection, in the left turn lane, and the green arrow turned on, so she proceeded to make a left turn onto the other road. At the same time, a lady on the opposite side of the street was making a right turn. This wouldn't be a problem, the road both my sister and this lady are turning on is two lanes wide. The problem was this, my sister stuck to her lane, the lady, on the other hand, didn't, she drifted into my sister's lane, and hit the passenger side of my sister's car, scraping a lot of paint off and denting the back passenger door.
The fucked up part was this, my sister saw that this lady was getting to close to her car, and so she honked her horn to get the lady's attention, didn't help, the lady still hit her. What is even more fucked up is that when they pulled over to exchange information, the lady tried to claim that it was my sister's fault that she hit her. My sister called the cops, to verify what really happened, and the lady shut up about claiming it was my sister's fault in front of the cop, and when my sister finally called the insurance company later to report the accident(coincidentally, both the lady and my sister have the same insurance company), the insurance company said the lady claimed fault when she reported it over the phone. At least my sister doesn't have to pay the deductible to fix the damage, nor will her rates go up, hopefully.
I don't know what this lady was thinking, both before the accident and afterward, but did she think my sister, just because she's young(24) was going to roll over and take it when the lady lied? She must be incredibly stupid.
I'm just glad my sister is OK.
