A few weeks ago, a lady rear ended Anna Maria while she was waiting to make a left turn. AM said she saw the lady coming, and knew she couldn't stop. Just then it was safe to make the left turn, so AM gunned it, hoping to clear the car behind. And she almost made it. Anna Maria wasn't hurt, a bit of a stiff neck is all. But the other lady's air bag deployed, and she suffered, most likely, a broken arm in the crash. The insurance company offered AM a choice -- $1,100 to fix the car or $900 and turn the car over. They opted for the latter. I've driven this car many times, as it's easier to trade cars with the kids than it is to transfer car seats from theirs to mine. I think they made a wise choice, especially given the fact that they have two cars. Steven only has another month of school left and then, in July, they'll be headed off to Newfoundland. Since Steven and I ride together to work two or three days a week, getting by on one car is manageable.
