I got into a car accident today, my car is totaled... I don't even care about the car; the only thing on my mind was trying to get my daughter out of her carseat as fast as I could... thank GOD we are ok! My daughter had blood everywhere but she's ok now, my mom went unconscious for a bit and is recovering well, my brother who didn't have his seatbelt walked away without a scratch...I have a very ugly painful bruise all the way around my pelvis area, and chest abrasions... the kid who hit us is fine but he was texting and driving. DO NOT TEXT AND DRIVE!!!!!

Oh yeah, this pain is excruciating...worse than the c-section I had.

Did the kid have insurance? You should prosecute, this texting and driving bullshit is a new menace and imo on par with drunk or exhausted driving for lethal results.

Awful but I am glad it is not worse for you!

My prayers for you and your family and the bills being paid and then some.

Texting and driving makes me wacko mad! No stinking message is worth risking your life and the lives of passengers and other people in the other cars! Pull over, give us a break you morons!

Thank you everyone!

I do have full coverage, my mom is definitely wanting to prosecute...My 4 yr old couldn't sleep last night, she kept crying and this morning she didn't even want to go near a car..I'm sure this is normal, just breaks my heart. And the pain today is worse than last night.

But yes, texting can wait!

Glad you are all ok! I am glad you are looking to prosecute texting while driving is pure STUPIDITY! Car accidents can be extremely traumatic for children my 3 (4,6,8yrs)were in a minor accident with me in Feb they were not badly injured just minor aches and pains but the mental trauma was worse. The lady was on her phone but not texting but should have been paying attention. Hopefully with her insurance company paying out for the repairs to our car and our personal injuries she will be more careful next time ....

My granddaughter and I were walking across an intersection. We had the "walk" , red light was stopping traffic...except for one lady on a cell phone. She didn't stop, she didn't slow down, we were invisible to her. I had to pick up my granddaughter and jump out of the way. She kept on going, not looking back, continuing her phone call that was more important than driving. She was totally unaware that she had run a red light and nearly killed 2 people. I wish I had read the license plate.

Thank you!! I'm glad your kiddos were ok!! Talking on the phone is just as distracting as texting. That's great that her insurance is paying. Hopefully his insurance pays as well.

Wow, that's so scary! A phone call and text message are not more important the the safety of others and yourself. I would have been livid.
