I CRASHED ME CAR

My trust worthy Ford Telstar has passed away in a final act that saved my life. On the night of Wednesday 27th July I was travelling home from Ricky's house after having Uni from 8:30am till 6:30pm a stupid craig decided to slam on his brakes on a main rd, NorthEast Rd, and turn right, the commodore behind him stopped in time but i couldnt, i was a good distance behind him travelling under the speed limit but it seemed like the brakes didnt work, either that or the car skidded without me knowing it, i guess fatigued played a role. But I hit the commodore, HARD, at the time it didnt seem like the car slowed down at all. The sound of the crash and that moment was the scariest shit i've encountered. When I hit the car in front had petrol spraying everywhere and then it just flowed across the road. My front had been crumpled and the windscreen wipers were smashed. When i tried to open the door it wouldnt move properly, i had to shove it open as it had crumpled a fraction. I stumbled out of the car and was in a daze for a few minutes. I then rushed to the other car to get the other people out, as they came out they were stumbling too, the car in front had done a runner at that time i suspect. I called 000 immediately, and soon enough the police, fire brigade and ambulance arrived. The firemen foamed up the petrol and the police closed the road for a while, reducing traffic to a standstill. I then called my parents and my uncle and Ricky who came to help. Then i felt this pain in my head and then i realised i had hit it on the steering wheel, but it wasnt major. The ambulance had a look at me and i told him i was fine so he went off. I had an esky of coronas in the back seat and they had smashed together and the esky had tipped over so beer was poured all over the car, and it stunk. The police did a breath test on me and it turned out to be 0.00. because i wasnt drinking. I was still dazed when the police questioned me, they had said they'd fine me but then retracted seeing that i was yellow and instead said they were taking me to court charging me with driving without due care. Fuckers. I had did my best to help them and they just wana fuck on me. But im ok, all i got was whiplash injuries (i.e. stretched ligaments and neck muscles (posterior triangle)), a bruise on my head and neoplasy of the aldar nerve on my left arm, nothing permanent. Oh also im lucky to have comprehensive insurance. So im fine.
