Some of you saw my tweet earlier today about the Husbear being involved in an accident. Thank you to those who tweeted back.
I just wanted to let everyone know that he is doing fine.
This was the Husbear’s first auto accident. Which is impressive to me. I’ve lost count of how many I’ve been involved in.
Apparently, the Husbear was passing (legally) a farm tractor and a car that was following it. As he passed the car, the driver of the car decided they needed to turn left at that moment and hit the truck.
The truck has what appears to be minimal damage to it thanks mostly to the passenger side nerf bar. The nerf bar is a little warped now but it is what saved the side of the truck from the brunt of the accident. The other car essentially did a rail-slide along it which spared most of the side of the truck from damage sans some scrapes in a few places and some damage to the front tire.
The other car appears to not have fared so well. Apparently they will be replacing the side panel above their front wheel well and entire headlight assembly.
Until next time...
Who knew left turns could be so exciting. Glad your husbear and the other guy are OK.
Thanks!
I guess I could have mentioned the other party was a female driver with a handicap placard… with no sign of needing it?
Those damned women drivers!
Glad that for such an unfortunate incident it turns out not to be terribly unfortunate, at least for the Husbear.
We have a history with the ladies… pulling out in front of us. Maybe it’s because we’re just shopping at the same places. 😉
I just hope no one spilled their beer!
Luckily, he Husbear’s not a beer drinker… so his Sonic cup would have had a lid on it! 😉
fuckin farmers…
Glad he is alright. Being a Nebraskan (I live in Colorado now) I completely get the Farm Husbandry!
Have a Happy 2009!

I’m glad he’s ok too.
Oh good to hear! I was waiting for you to tweet the update!
You need to keep him on a leash! And take photos.
Just kidding. Glad he’s ok!
Glad that the Husbear’s okay, too.
Glad your husbear is okay.
