Car accident

Last Saturday night, Dave & I headed out on our weekly date.  On the way to dinner, we were hit by an 81 year old lady who had run a red light.  We were going through an intersection on a fairly busy road, traveling at 45 mph when out of nowhere, there she was.  Dave hit the brakes at about the same time as she hit us.  Thankfully, neither Dave or I suffered any major injuries.  His shoulder was scrapped up and I have a little whiplash but nothing major.  The driver of the other car was taken by ambulance to the hospital.  Her legs were bleeding/scraped up and I'm sure she was shaken up but as far as we know, she is okay.  His truck, not so much . . . 

 Her car was totaled.  We are still waiting to find out if they are going to total Dave's truck or not.  The deciding factor will be if the frame is damaged or not.  You can't really tell in the pictures, but his wheel is bent at probably a 30 degree angle.  We were amazed at how well the truck handled and that there wasn't more damage for as hard of an impact as it was.  The police officer said he was surprised that the air bags didn't go off.  We are so thankful that everyone was okay.
