OMG! I Caused A Car Accident! (゚д゚)

Dec 29, 2014 21:24
It was snowing a lot this morning.

After I shoveled the snow that was piled around my car, I was trying to back the car from the parking area.

I couldn't see behind securely due to the snow, and there is a parked car on my car's behind.

"Bump!" The sound made my face pale, and my heart was in my mouth.

The car's license plate and my car's left-side rear were dented.

However, there was nobody in the car and the owner was close by, so we could talk to each other immediately.

(I think these things were a blessing in disguise.)

First, I tried to call the police, but he said "You need not to do that."

As a result of our talking, it was decided only that I will pay a fee for repairing his car.

Definitely, I was relieved because there were no injured, and the car's owner was a good man.

I'll be careful from now on.
今朝は雪が沢山降っていました。

私は車に積もった雪と車の周辺の雪をどけて、駐車場から車をバックで出そうとしました。

雪のため後ろがしっかりと確認できていませんでしたが、バックした先には駐車中の車があったのです。

「ガンッ」と音が鳴り、顔が青ざめ、生きた心地がしませんでした。

相手の車のナンバープレートと、私の車の左側のリアが凹んでしまいました。

幸い車には誰も乗っておらず、持ち主は近くにいたので、すぐに話し合うことができました。

私は警察に連絡しようとしましたが、相手にはそんな必要は無いと言われました。

話し合いの結果、修理費用だけ後日請求してもらうことになりました。

大事故にならず、そして相手がいい人で、良かったです。

これからはもっと慎重に運転したいです。
