Some advice

A few pieces of advice for the little twenty year old girl who rear ended me yesterday:

1. When you rear end someone, no matter how hard or softly you hit them, don't let your first words be "Did I hit you?" upon getting out of the car.

2. No matter how slight the damage, don't try to talk me out of calling the police. I almost listened but am now glad I didn't.

3. You should, at some point, say, "I'm sorry."

4. By twenty, you should know what I mean when I say, "Do you have your insurance card?"

5. You really should be embarrassed by your rude mother, who upon driving over to check on you after the accident, insinuated that the damage to my car "might have already been there" and tried to blame the whole thing on me by saying to the police officer that her daughter told her that I had started to go, so she went, too.
