I had a bad accident in September. The other driver ran a red light, probably going around 40mph. She didn't hit her brakes at all. She T boned me, and I started spinning, and ended up on a median. I vaguely remember seeing her coming, and then I remember being on the median and I was still flooring the accelerator.
I basically got spun out of my seat belt, hit my head on the steering wheel, serious concussion, my back is still messed up, and still dealing with the aftermath.
I am still terrified of driving. Part of me just wants to take the bus and relax for a while, but it's getting hot here and that would be miserable.
I wish I could say it will go away soon, but it really depends on how much the accident traumatized you. Mine was so frightening, every time I go thru that intersection, I start to freak out still, and it's been 9 months...
