Here's my recollection of events.
1. A friend drops me at my car. Another friend asks for a lift home so he gets out with me.
2. I'm in hospital.
Thankfully I dropped the other guy home before the crash. He lived down some remote back road. After I dropped him at his house I turned around and took a wrong turn, that where what I'm certain of ends. (Of course this is what I've been told and pieced together. I don't remember getting into the car).
The police report says I lost control of the car coming around a corner (the conditions were crap, night time, wet, windy, wet leaves on the road). What bothers me is that doesn't sound like me. I wasn't a fantastic driver but I didn't throw the car around like that either. I think I realised I had made a wrong turn, pulled over and did a three point turn. The thing is as I took off after the two turns, I'd have put my foot down to spin the wheels (being a teenage driver). I'd say the car kicked out more then I expected because of the conditions and thats what caused the crash.
The roof collapsed in one of two ways. Either it slid into a tree when it was on it's side (which I doubt) or it happened when it slid off the embankment, fell ten feet and landed on it's roof (which we know happened cause that's how it was found). The latter's more likely cause if the roof was collapsed before the car fell I probably wouldn't have survived.
So, to conclude, I am invincible.
Hehe, you can still see my frisbee in the back seat.  |
