Had an unfortunate accident the other day. I always reckon to be a good or at least above average driver as I was taught to drive by a police driving instructor.

Anyway I was driving past one of our local secondary schools and this young gentleman stepped out from behind a bush into the path of the car. Lightening reaction by yours truly but I was still doing about 10 mph when I hit him. Now I am not easily shocked but I can still see, hear and feel his body hitting the car and its not a pleasant experience I can tell you.

Fortunately he only suffered cuts and bruises but never the less I think I can sum it up by saying that it was horrible for both of us.
