RE: Carpe Diem
In Dutch we have this saying 'an accident can fit in a small corner'... Seems appropriate today. But indeed. Learn and be humble. Never take anything for granted. Be more careful than you think you need to be.
Well put. The lady should and will calm down in time. Hopefully, she will think about what she could've done differently and can do differently under similar conditions. I have made one such mistake when I was tired. The lesson I learned: don't drive when tired but if you must, take every reasonable precaution to be safe. In that situation nobody injured. Just €15k or so worth of damage my insurance company covered.
I'm sorry to hear you had to go through that, but good to hear it caused no human injury. Yes, I hope she will learn something from it, she definitely has felt the shock, but to create/learn a lesson is something else. Let's hope so. I'm curious to see what driverless cars will chance for us in the coming 20 years or so. I hear good things, but software learns from humans so it's also never perfect :-) Every life saved is one though!
