Be forwarned that the same insurance company that efficiently pays a claim for a damaged vehicle might totally refuse to pay anything for medical evaluation and treatment of injuries from the same crash. Protect your rights.

You will never forget the experience.

Glad you’re around to offer condolences to.

Glad you are both okay. Hydroplaning scares the crap out of me. I hate becoming a passenger when I thought I was driving.
