You have never been in a real accident unless you have been in a Chicago car accident. I recently took a trip to the Windy City and I was overwhelmed with the traffic. My experience driving in this well-known town wasn’t the best and I feel the need to offer some insight on how a Chicago car accident can change your life.

Since I had no idea where I was going, I relied heavily on the street signs on the highway to help me along. The problem was that there were so many big trucks on the highway that I couldn’t see the signs in time. This dilemma was a source of major panic and there was little doubt that part of my driving experience would involve a Chicago car accident.

This isn’t really leading where you might think. This particular car accident in Chicago wasn’t my fault. In fact, I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. However, I might have avoided the whole entire incident if I were a little quicker with my reflexes and a little less concerned about reading the signs on the road.

When a Chicago car accident occurs on the highway, there is a good chance that more than one vehicle will be involved in the wreck. On the busy day that I ventured out on the highway leading into the Windy City, there was a major pile-up. One car rear-ended another and another followed. The chain continued for what seemed to be miles but I’m sure that it wasn’t that bad.

Quote of the Day

So, Anactoria, go you away
With what calm carelessness of sorrow!
Your gleaming footstep and your grace,
When comes another morrow,
Much would I rather then behold
Than Lydian cars or infantry.

—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

I wasn’t among the individuals in the wreck but I was one of the individuals profoundly disturbed by the occurrence. I was among a countless number of people stuck waiting to get off on the exit where the Chicago car accident occurred. This was not good for a few reasons.

First of all, I waited until last minute to leave. I figured that my directions would get me there in no time. I really underestimated the difficulty of traveling to a big city. The Chicago car accident was just enough to pretty much insure that I wasn’t going to make it to my interview.

After seeing how difficult it is to drive in the big city, I wasn’t sure whether or not I actually wanted the job. I called the potential employer and told her about the wreck. She wound up interviewing me over the phone and we set up another time to meet. I did wind up getting the job and I wonder if it had something to do with the Chicago car accident.
