Aren't all green lights "Yield to oncoming traffic if you want to turn left"?

You learn from the mistakes you make. Just be thankful that no one got hurt. You are not retarded, we all make bad calls at some point in our lives.

This is stupid, he was driving from one point to another, do you really think he was driving so recklesly that he was lucky to ONLY wreck 3 cars and have everybody be ok? This is like the people that get cancer, live through it, and act like they are blessed or something. You got [censored] cancer, this was not a lucky thing just because you lived through it.

Glad everyone is ok.

All-in-all, it sounds like you handled things very well, even without my Aromatherapy advice which has helped so many others these past 12 hours.

Don't let this get you down. Accidents are called just that for a reason. As accidents go, this one sounds to have gone 'right' if that is at all possible.

Grain of salt, learning experience, [insert favorite cliche here]. Either way you look at it...everyone's alive and that's all that counts.

Three weeks after I got my driving licence, I had a crash with biker on a zebra crossing. I was speeding and didn't have flicker on as I made a turn. I nearly killed the poor guy. He had a cerebral hemorrhage, but he survived. I almost went to jail, but the judge was kind with me and only gave me a huge fine..

I felt so bad back then. I don't know what I would have done, if that person had died. I think you were lucky not to hurt anyone. It feels so much worse than monetary loss.

$hit happens.

Everyone is unhurt and still alive; don't feel bad.

Peace,
Joe

Thanks for the only non-narcissistic post to populate this board this year. It is refreshing.
