was totaled of course. I am off work for a month to allow myself toheal but
typing with a full immobilizing brace on my right hand is difficult.So I'm

Hello Ward.
12 Mar 19 22:14, you wrote to me:
In that case, consider yourself extremely lucky.
The attending highway patrol (state) officer said he'd never seen an accident in 40 years of being on the force where three people were
not injured in such a bad accident. There was a third car involved;
the offending driver hit them first then me.
Just tell me when you're recovered enough so I can bitch about you
again ... 8-)
It may be a while. I am currently jobless due to the accident but
because I was on the clock, workers' comp is handling all of the
medical issues and I am making a little money to sustain me.
In that case, consider yourself extremely lucky.

My little 2016 Nissan Versa survived getting hit head on by a full-size Chevy Blazer (K5) at 70 MPH. Totaled the car completely but I walked away from the accident. I am forever thankful that the Versa was engineered well enough to take that kind of impact.
On a side note, I refreshed my will.

Glad to see you back in one piece!

Just to re-cap:
You were hit by a car in an accident, and your employer fired you because you where unable to work because of the accident?
Is that legal in any civilized country?

Hello, Gregory!
Replying to a message of Gregory Deyss to Sean Dennis:
What were you driving? I drive a Volkswagen, years ago I had a Jetta K2 I was traveling to work coming down route 43 coming from West Sand Lake approaching the intersection of route 43 and route 4 in Defreestville. Behind me as a dump-truck hauling 30 ton of shale which hit me in the real end.
I was driving a 2016 Nissan Versa. Here's a pic of the front-end of the car after the accident:

Thankful for crumple zones, seat belts, and side, curtain, and frontal
air bags. Those are what saved my life.

When I approached the front of my car I couldn't not believe it there
was no damage, just a smallest of smallest of tiny dings. Tough
little car.
Quick recovery !!
Surviving a car accident can be an ordeal unto itself.
But better to be alive than not being alive.
There is always the lottery ...
Good to hear you survived. What about those in the other vehicle?
How many folks bother to even have a will? And of those who do, how
many have kept it in a safe place? As well as keeping an extra copy
in the hands of an attorney or executor?
It is so easy for someone to claim that an individual never wrote a
will, especially if the will was placed in an insecure place.
When someone dies innestate, the state divides it equally among
heirs. Let's say an individual wants to give 50% to one heir,
25% to another heir, 10% to somebody else, and the rest to charity.
One of his heirs gets greedy, or has been shut out. What to do?
Steal the will, and destroy it. The state then has to divide
equally.
What happens when a billionaire goes nuts and leaves everything
to his/her cat? Only the caretaker of the cat wins.
Glad you were fortunate to get out with what injuries you did receive
-- there's a lot to be said for engineering safety these days. NHTSA
did a head-on crash test with a 2018 Chevy and a 1958 Chevy, and the
1958 was frighteningly damaged. The front end of the 2018 was toast,
but the passenger compartment was mostly intact.
I believe Sean works for himself. The downside of being self-employed
is no work/no money.
