This past end of December I was involved in a pretty serious accident. It was during a move to another state. My DH was following behind in the moving truck with one DS I had another DS with me.
I just started thinking about all the events again and realized how dumb I was. DS's car seat was not usable anymore, or the totaled car for that matter.
After the tow truck showed up, I was done with police reports, emergency people had okay'ed me and DS. I jumped in the moving truck. There were three seats in the truck. I held DS on my lap and we went on our way to our new apartment.
We were 15-20 minutes from our new apartment.
I just started thinking. Wow, that wasn't very smart of me. Now, granted, I was extremely shaken and not thinking straight. I have to say, we were in a huge truck, we would have had the advantage if any accident had occurred. But I was just thinking, what would you have done? I guess I could have asked the police to drive us, but again, no car seat. We didn't know anyone in our new state to be able to ask them to come rescue us. Nearest family was 4-5 hours away. Just curious what others would have done.
