Show Me Your Crash(es)

In November 2001 I got a new job for a German company and my first company car! :happy: Got the train to Wolverhampton to pick it up from the previous guy who did the job and drove it back home.
Of course I was chuffed to bits at getting myself a year old Audi A4 and spent that weekend cleaning it.

The following Monday I was to drive to Birmingham Airport to catch a flight to Germany for my training in the new position, I remember being really excited/apprehensive on the Sunday night & hardly slept. Next morning I was up by 4:00am and left to drive to Birmingham Airport. I remember getting onto the A14 near Kettering and setting the Cruise Control to 70mph.......

Nex thing I remember waking up in the car looking at the headlining and a guy asking me what my name was? After I answered he then covered my face and said they're going to get me out... i heard lots of crushing & breaking glass (obviously cutting the car roof off) then I was lifted out of the car, and on my way to Hospital.

In total I spent one Month three different Hospitals and managed to break my arm, my pelvis my thigh and totaly smash my tibia so had to have this fitted for a few months!!

I have ABSOLUTELY no memory of the crash, and was told by the Police that I basically drove into the back of a truck that was illegially parked on the road. When they got there the truck had gone, and I was sat there smashed up.
