This was the end result of the worst car accident I’ve had (hmm, that kind of makes it sound like I’ve had quite a few). My trusty Taurus was destroyed, the airbags deployed (awful smell BTW) and I was completely, and I must say unexpectedly, unhurt. Fortunately, the driver of the other vehicle that was coming the other way and spun into my lane on that snowy day a few years ago was also uninjured. And the insurance company came through with what became a nice down payment towards my next vehicle.
