Hey, I’m not hurt but I’ve been in a crash

By meadowlea

Hey, I’m not hurt but I’ve been in a crash
They don’t want me to ring to cops she sobs
His dad has arrived and is belting him.
What happened why don’t they want the cops?
His dad mentioned drugs whilst drinking out of his bottle
He started into the roundabout then he stopped
I hit the brakes but my foot slipped sideways onto the accelerator
I hit him but at least I’m insured, but I need to call a cop
Is anyone injured I ask, are you ok?
My knee hurts where it slammed; my seatbelt hurt me like hell, I’m crying and shocked as well,
Guess all you can do is read his licence and write down their details and ring the cops when you get home.
Lucky you, you get booked, inattentive driving, it doesn’t matter he is provisional and was driving inappropriately.
Fuck I’ll lose my licence I don’t have enough points, the cops said that taking my son’s would hurt me.
Hopefully the insurance company will pay to get your car fixed.
How will I get to work you ask? No one has a spare car.
Even tho I’m 300 kms away I need mine Monday then I can bring it down, I can nurse the celica to TAFE til yours is better.
