So last night my Friend Donna and I were leaving the mall when this 16 year old girl asks for change to use the phone. I hand her my cell phone so she can call her mother. Her mother refuses to pick her up or offer any kind of assistance for her to get home.
At this point, Donna suggests that we can give her a ride.
Off we go....
Now...The girl fails to tell us that the house that she is directing us to is not her home but her boyfriends....Who happens to live on a hill. Keep in mind that Portland is covered in a sheet of ice.
Long story short.....At one point, we start to slide backwards and there's no way I can control or stop us. We continued to pick up speed until we slammed into the sidewalk sideways. That slowed us down a little but we were still sliding. In the rear view mirror, I see a truck.
Yeah...It was not cool.
So we slammed into this brand new GMC Yukon while the owner was standing right there watching. We were the second car to hit the Yukon yesterday.
At this point, my Jeep was stuck on the sidewalk. No matter what we did, we could not move it. Right now, my Jeep is still up on that hill. It's been there all night. I can't help but wonder how many more people have done the same thing and smashed my ride up even more.
In about 5 hours the streets should be clear enough for me to check it out. Pics to follow.
Thankfully I have insurance.
