    Aaannd because I needed to worry about whether or not I'll still have a job in the near future, I had an 86 year old woman drive into my bus today! #

      @scribus Did the old woman die?

        @zeldatra No, but she's saying I drove into her, and the bus has cameras just about everywhere EXCEPT the side she ran into me on.

          @scribus if she hit your side how could you have ran into her? does your bus drive sideways?

            @zeldatra @rarity Because she isn't willing to admit she's way past too old to drive.

              @scribus Well, yeah, but would they really believe a borderline senile woman over evidence?

                @zeldatra I'm hoping not.

                  @scribus I'm guessing that as long as you had the right of way, it'd be declared her fault and you'll get off scot-free.

                    @zeldatra As am I, but I've been screwed over before in life, I'm preparing for the worst here.

              @scribus Just be honest and you'll be fine. This probably isn't her first crash so they'll see that it was her fault.

                @rarity She claimed she'd been driving for "70 years" without an accident. (And then, the supervisor who responded to the scene pointed out a scratch on the other side of her car)

          @scribus Whoa, wait, wouldn't the massive old lady car shaped dent on your bus be a clear indicator as to who hit who? How would you run into her from the side?

            @zeldatra Better question still is how would I drive into someone on my left side when I was moving straight and to the right?
