Yes, We've Met

This was fun:



One hospital, one auto-repair shop, one tire store, and two days.

But it was my own fault, really.

I had the choices of slamming on my brakes and inviting a rear-end collision, swerving into the left lane and hitting a car, floating above the crater, or driving through it while maintaining control and avoiding hitting anybody else.

I chose the last option, and hence it was really all my fault.

Obviously.

Actually, from the clip, I could have gone all the way to the right and avoided it. But I don't remember it being obvious at the time that the hole didn't extend to the curb. Water may have obscured that fact.

My hubcap is in my trunk. It's mine.
