Bad luck with cars...


Well about a month ago I was on my way down to Lake Gaston to go spend the day at my boyfriend’s mom and step dad’s camp site at Outdoor World. It’s a place where you can buy a spot for your camper and make it all nice and stuff. I left my house around 7 in the morning so I could get down there early and have the whole day to hang out. I was driving down 95 south about to get in Emporia just driving along with the flow of traffic but of course I was at the end of the pack and there was a police officer and he pulled me over for going 80 in a 70. I was a little angry because everyone else was going the same speed, probably faster than me but of course I get a ticket for it. Then about 2 weeks ago I was driving home of school and just got off 95 in Colonial Heights and I was sitting at a light where you have to yield to the oncoming traffic at temple in order to go and I thought the car in front of me already went so I was turned making sure no other cars were coming and when I went the guy in front of my ended up slamming on his breaks (he said there was another car coming but there wasn’t because I was clear to go) so I slammed into the back of him. Thankfully the officer was super nice and didn’t give me a ticket but I messed up the front of my car and the back of the guys truck so I had to pay $500 for my deductible for the insurance to cover the rest of the cost. Thank god I did have insurance because it cost $5,790 to get it fixed so only having to pay $500 was good. I have court on Wednesday for my speeding ticket so hopefully the judge will drop the ticket and give me driving school so my insurance doesn’t go up even more! This all would happen around Christmas time so now I have no money for gifts… :/
