Indicents + Accidents

Recently I received series of warnings.

On Sunday's outing to Strawberry reservoir, after passing the dirt road, our car's front right tyre gone flat.

On yesterday's visit to hospital, while I was driving on the freeway, all out of sudden a flying rock caused a little crack in the front windshield.

Then on the way back to hospital after dinner at night, I bent into a wrong lane, cut back into the right one wrongly without observing, and got a loud horn from car behind shamefully.

And it wasn't enough. I lost my way coming out of hospital and wandered around unfamiliar routes in SLC. I was finding my way out and turned into a two way road with one lane each way. It was so dark with few street lamps and no cars that I could hardly recognize the road conditions. Finally a bus passed on my left. I was on the right way.

And then two strong light circles emerged in front, not far away. Gosh! Within split second I pull my car over to the right and braked heavily. Just touching the front bush, mere escape. If what's on my right was a concrete divider then I would have been divided, without the chance even to wave goodbye.

I am glad that I am still here. I bought a heavy lesson without paying. How lucky!
