About 2 weeks ago I was driving on the freeway and the guy to my right tried to merge into me. I swerved into the left lane but my car spun out and I hit the median at 65mph. The guy never stopped and my car was totaled so now I don't have a car. I got nothing back; the insurance covered nothing. Sometimes you just have to take the loss and be glad you're alive.
