Phonecall at 4pm from my Wife, hysterical to say she had just been in a Head on collision on a Single carriageway in her MPV. My 7 month old daughter and mother-in-law also in the car.

 

Jumped in car, and screeched there to find Wife in ambulance, Daughter on Respirator and mother-in-law at side of road in neckbrace surrounded my paramedics.

 

Spent the evening in Hospital, Wife and daughter now home. Cuts and bruises on my wife. Baby suffered whiplash and has bruises where car seat harness digged in, but both ok.

 

Mother-in-law having to stay in hospital, with fracturered Ribs and breathing difficulties.

 

It seems to be my Wifes fault...2 cars in front started slowing, so did she, then they stopped suddenly, her ABS kicked in, car would'nt stop in time and she swerved just before coming to a hault, hitting a Ford Galazy (doing about 60mph - the legal speed limit) coming the other way.

 

Both cars very much write off's. One of the kids in other car seemed quite badly hurt :( , but not critical. Driver of Galazy had huge go at my wife, threatening to hunt her down and kill her, before I arrived. :mad:

 

The Road (major carriageway into City) is still closed, 7 hours later.

 

:( :( :(

Jeez Dave, I felt ill reading that :(, I'm really glad you're family are all still with us and on the mend, and I hope that everyone else involved turns out ok too. We all know that these things do happen, but we all pray that they don't happen to us - so I really feel for you right now.

 

I hate to be the one to preach but, let this be a lesson to us all.

omg - i hope everyone comes out of it ok

 

regards,

 

alex

Thank god everyone is still alive. My thoughts are with you mate... :(

Hope everything turns out OK for all concerned Dave. Both Karens and my best wishes to all.

OMG! We are so sorry to hear that. If there is anything either of us can do then dont hesitate to ask. I hope everyone recovers asap. xxx

wish everyone well, glad nobody was seriously injured

glad to hear everyone is walking wounded, could have been a lot worse given the circumstances...i know that heart in mouth feeling cos i had a similar call from my wife some months ago...a fella went through a no entry down a one way into her MPV...got out and had some choice words for her saying it was her fault for not looking...!!! honest to god....i was one street away so ran round...when he tried the same line with me i shot him a look and he shut the hell up....main thing was wife & kids were ok

Sorry to hear this Dave,thank god no fatalities,sounds like it was a close one mate,a speedy recovery for all concerned.

 

Tony & Donna

Really scary - I hope everything goes OK All the best

Just seen this thread, hope everyone involved has a speedy recovery, hope the other guy's children are all going to be ok.

 

But even if it was 'in the heat of the moment' he had no right to threaten her like that.

Make sure you tell the cops.

 

All the best,

 

Robert & Wendy.

coulnt believe it when i read it dave !! feel for ya mate, Glad everyone isnt too bad. hope everyone recovers asap .

Don't know you, as a newbie on the forum, but like everyone else, I wish you and your family all the best and a speedy recovery...

Been where you are now with my missus mate & its well scary. Just goes to show how instinct kicks in when faced with the dilemma of knowing your not going to stop in time. Its a survival thing that makes us choose the seemingly safer option, although this isnt always the case as proven here. My thoughts are with you n your family as well as the other people involved. Just shows how fragile & vulnerable we really are.

Fook! Sorry to hear it mate. If there's anything I can do......

Only just seen this David. Hope everyone is doing ok and there are no problems!

 

Steve :)

Hope everything turns out ok. Terrible thing to hear, but I am sure eveything will be fine

Same as all above mate. . .

 

and

 

AMEN to Seatbelts :bow:

Hope your family and tthose in the other vehicle are ok bud

Not a lot more that i can say, as all the above have said it, one thing is i know how scary it is losing control of your vehicle let Abbey know there is not point in pondering on the "What if''s" Hope everyone get better soon

Sorry to here about this, my best goes to all concerned.

 

Hope alls well soon.

 

Steve

Damn - just read this - so sorry to hear it happened but glad no-one was hurt too badly. Give them my best wishes and I hope everyone recovers quickly (although they'll think you're nuts if you say Craig David from the internet wishes them well!)

Sorry to hear that mate, good to hear that your wife and baby are back home

 

Hope things get better
