Kevin,I'm sorry to hear about your car. I hope you can get it fixed up just like new.However, I also think it's worth noting that most (not all, but most) accidents could have been avoided by the driver. Any time someone drives too fast for conditions or for his abilities, or changes lanes on wet pavement with insufficient visibility, is taking a chance; most of the time you can luck out, but sometimes you won't. It sounds to me like this incident as well as the previous one had some causes that did not involve sheer chance. On the plus side, there is as much positive fortune in no one being hurt as there is negative fortune in the car being damaged.You mention a lot of misfortune throughout your life and I don't mean to pooh-pooh this statement. I do believe that many people have misfortune in their lives which they suffer due to happenstance; it would be nice if everyone got as many positive breaks in life as negative ones, but it doesn't happen that way. Damage to your car can be fixed and is not really major misfortune in the scheme of things. I hope the things that DO matter turn around for you.
