Oh and ouch to rear-enders. My sister and I were in one this week, as we waited at a light to enter the freeway. When it turned green and the cars started forward, there was a delay and all the drivers had to pause a second until proceeding. Someone not paying attention banged into our car's rearend.
Not expecting the jolt and bump, immediately we were thrust forward then back slamming our heads on our seat backs. Both of us were wearing safety belts, getting only head and neck aches as a result. Now, a few days later, we are still checking to see if all neck joints are working well.
The car only sustained a bummed up bumper. It felt like our whole back end was smashed, but fortunately not. This isn't the first or the last time this car's bumper has been hit or fixed. Maybe it is jinxed or just a target for inattentive drivers. Thankfully it wasn't serious.
May you be safe while out and about. Please pay attention, drive slowly and watch out for the guy in front of you.
