Rant all you want. If it makes you feel any better I have a story for you. (this happened May 15 2002 with a brand new car)

I was working late one night so by the time i got out of work it was pitch dark (like 10:30 pm). I turned down this counry road (no street lights) without a thought and as i go down this road I think about the next day and that I had to go to the Dr to have a stress test (28 wks pregnant). I go up this little hill and as i come down it I saw animal eyes. I didn't have time to hit my brakes so I crashed right into it. I heard the metal crunching the winshield breaking and then the back window. I didn't have my lap belt on just the automatic shoulder belt. I felt something running down my arm (blood). I grabbed my cell phone and called 9-1-1. They told me that I had to know my exact location and I didn't know it. Finally they said that someone else called and they are sending first response. When they got there and couldn't open my door I asked them what I hit. They said a cow. I was in disbelief. The owners of the cow were there and it was thier prize winning bull that had gotten out. Two days later my daughter was born 12 weeeks premature. At first I started thinking about sueing them, until I told God that if my baby survives then I wouldn't sue. Elisa is noe 3 yrs old and she is tiny, but other than that no lasting effects.

I am happy that you didn't get hurt too badly.
