Yesterday was a bad day for my CJ and I. I was rear ended (well, the Jeep was while I was sitting in it) while pulled off on the shoulder of the road. I pulled over into the shoulder, out of the travel lane, with my hazards on to answer my cell phone. Before I could get three words out, there was a loud bang and everything went black. When I can too a few seconds later, there was debris everywhere and what looked like a passenger car smashed up in the on coming traffic lane. My Jeep had the rear axle push about halfway across the undercarriage and it was leaking fuel the last time I saw it. The other vehicle had the whole passenger side crumpuled up and was missing the front wheels from what I recall. The driver had to be cut out of thier vehicle. Oddly enough, I was just getting ready to step out of my Jeep to talk on phone as I usually do as it is nosiey inside my Jeep and I have a hard time hearing on the phone.
The driver of the striking vehicle veered from the travel lane onto the shoulder and impacted my Jeep at approximately 55 mph. The driver never applied the brakes.
To the best of my knowledge, either myself or the other driver sustained serious injury (Thank Goodness). Moral of the story? Even if you are following State Law and common sense, you can predict other drivers.........
