  • My very first car accident, I rear-ended a septic truck. Fortunately it was empty at the time.

    Every word of that makes it sound like I’m making a joke, but I’m not.

    However, if you would like a joke, we were near a storage unit facility. The entrance required a code to open. While we were waiting for the police to arrive to make our report, the driver of the septic truck observed that the gate had a sign saying “Do Not Tailgate” and that perhaps I would have done well to listen.

    Back to simple facts, at the time I worked at a convenience store. It turned out that the person who delivered Tastykake to our location was friends with the septic truck driver. The Dodge Neon I was driving at the time had done absolutely no damage to the truck so, working through this proxy, I was able to convince the other driver not to show up to our court date. Therefore I was able to escape any legal or financial consequences for my poor driving.
