This morning my daughter messaged she was leaving for home. A few minutes later she called to report she was in an accident. Someone had hit her from behind as she was trying to merge on to I 94 off highway 100. This area is under construction and is a mess. Her only complaint was a throbbing headache. I talked to her and tried to keep her calm until help arrived. Unfortunately the Sheriff felt she should be yielding to go on to freeway. Later found out that the man that hit her was arrested as there were several warrants out for his arrest. She was taken to Froiedert ER, treated for muscle neck strain and possible concussion.
We had to call for a rental car as Prius was still in shop. They delivered it to our home and we were off to the hospital, but they had released Cherith. Next the adventure to the tow yard. Damage extensive to the rear. Totaled car. We ended up contacting a salvage yard for pick up. Cherith got 175.00 for salvage. Now the hunt for a replacement car for her. Hopefully will rest this weekend.
Our car will not be ready until Tuesday...so rental car for a bit longer.
Luckily Cherith is ok and her personal property is not damaged.
Glad to be home after a long day.
