My wife, her brother, our 7 year old son were going to a beach here in Ottawa. My wife was waiting to turn left, she had the green light. Waiting, waiting, then the oncoming lanes were clear so she made the turn, still with a green light. Perpendicular or cross-traffic had the red light. Old man in a Honda Accord came ripping through the intersection. He said my wife ran the red light. He wasn't hurt either, so that's good. Two witnesses disagreed with him about the events and told the same story that my wife and her brother did. Son went to CHEO to ensure he was okay. Wife is tired now, the boy is his usually bouncy self.
I have not seen the FozXT yet, it's a long weekend too, so it looks like we can collect our belongings on Tuesday. Looks like major front-end damage, both fenders, both front airbags, not sure what else.
Really happy nobody was hurt.
Insurance said the best bet against this we-say/they-say kerfuffle is a dash cam. Looks like I'm going shopping for two...
