I was driving on the highway this morning going to meet some friends. I was in the left lane, and I went to shift into the right lane, and for whatever reason I didnt see that there was a small car beside me, I guess it was in my blind spot. Our cars didnt collide, I swerved to the left into the grass and have no injuries on me or my truck, but the car swerved right, and right into the guard rail goin 70+ miles an hour. I got out of my car and ran to see if they were okay, and god bless they were fine, just a little shaken up.
Im 17 years old, and this was my first accident, and to make matters worse, the women in the car was 30 weeks pregnant. She is fine but I can help being upset with myself and sick to my stomach at what could have happened to her and the baby.
I know I fucked up, and I apologized at least a hundred times even though I know it probably doesnt mean much, but now I cant help feeling apprehensive and even a little scared driving.Not scared driving, but that I could potentially hurt someone else.
My question is if you guys have ever been in an accident where it was your fault and you knew you fucked up, and how or if you got over the shitty feeling of what could have happened or did happen? I feel like complete shit right now, but I thank god for him not letting the women or baby get injured, as I couldnt live with myself had I injured them.
