Post traumatic stress (sort of)
Sep. 29th, 2008 10:15 pmMy bus hit a car on the way home from work this evening. The car drove part of the way out of an alley way right in front of the bus. Fortunately, the bus had just pulled away from a pedestrian crossing and was approaching traffic lights so it wasn't going very quickly. It hit the car with a massive bang and most of the front of the car fell off. It was a Mercedes as well. The bang scared the little girl sitting in front of me and she started crying. The bus stopped and the driver called his controller for help. He let all the passengers out of the back door and the driver of the car came running up with his digital camera and started taking loads of photos of the bus driver, number plate etc. It was all very dramatic and slightly scary. I was still feeling a bit fragile after the weekend and it wasn't my perfect ending to the day.
