I was driving home from my job one day and a speeding Heating, Ventilation and A/C job truck side swiped my coupe and sent myself and others sliding into the ditch.
I tried to avoid the accident, but the guy came barrelling out of nowhere.
The driver of the Heating, Ventilation and A/C job truck called the police and 911 too. I was lucky, because some people around here would just continue driving. Thankfully, I did not get any extreme injuries. My vehicle had to be towed away from the scene, but I only had a few scrapes and some bruises. My arm was bruised badly, but I did not need to go to the emergency room with the ambulance paramedics. The police officer talked to the driver of the job truck and me. The driver of the HVAC truck said he was in a hurry to help a shopper with an A/C repair. The guy tried to use his A/C repair job as an excuse for his high speed. The guy was driving over 70 miles per hour in a 45 mile per hour zone. The police officer looked frustrated and he gave the driver of the HVAC truck a substantial ticket. I did not see the amount of the fine, but the guy was really furious. My A/C repair tech is never on time. My partner and I have been using the same repair for the past seven years and they rarely show up when they are scheduled. Maybe my partner and I should maybe start using the repair repair that hit my car. It seems as if their professionals will do anything to get to an appointment on time.
