me not long ago. One day I drove to a nearby city

pulled the
car to a halt as the red light was on; however, a
black Buick suddenly
collided into my
car from behind. I was slightly injured. Wild with
anger I cursed
and got out only to find
that the woman driver of the other car appeared to
have
been knocked unconscious and her
young child, who was sitting in the rear of the
car, was hurt, too. I had to fumble in
my pockets for my mobile phone and call the
police. In a few minutes a police car
came and rushed the lady and her child to
hospital. I was, however, asked to stay
where I was. In fact, I didn't leave the
scene until two hours later although I
was not to blame at all. By the time I got
home all my energy seemed to have
deserted me. As to the business trip, I had to
cancel it. As a result, my work
suffered enormously. Up to now, I still can't make
sense of the accident.
