Physician killed by fleeing burglar

So I saw this story earlier today when I was at work (they added the video later), and I got weirdly emotional. The thing about it is, I still think about the moment when the passenger side of my car imploded and the floorboard buckled under my feet. The whole thing happened in slow motion, and I remember every detail.

As with this guy, I never saw the car coming. But I can remember what happened after the impact only because the other car hit my passenger side.

It’s great that we got a new car, and we weren’t really out any money on the deal. But seeing this story reminded me how freaking lucky I was not to be more seriously injured. Dealing with all the insurance crap had allowed me to concentrate on other things. I have to admit, reading about this accident happening not far from where I live shook me up a bit.
