Mukul, the accident we had happened in 1995. We were returning from Calicut,and my mom was driving our Omni. There were a few segments that had no tar, just concrete. She went a little fast over one such stretch,and the van skidded. We went head on onto the base of a tree,and the van ended up taking a big hit. Luckily,none of us were seriously injured. A part of the wheel arch got bent,and began pressing the tire. It took us a while to get out of there,and we were lucky to get some assistance from a truck driver. They use a chain and got the van out for us. We had to hammer a part of the arch outwards,and my dad then drove the rest of the 200+kms.It was pretty bad,since the accelerator had been pushed forward,and there was only a little space to squeeze a leg in to keep it pressed.
The funny side to it was how I ended up after the crash. I had been kneeling down,and looking outside the window. Suddenly a screech & a swerve,and i find myself dangling ,with my legs over the front seat.
