The cloud of bad luck still looms over us fellow CEGer's....

Earlier today I was driving on I-71 south, to visit my girlfriend and I was in the middle lane, in the process of switching lanes to the right lane and my car lifted up and hydroplaned. I was just beginning to move into the other lane and my tires caught the row of slush that collects between the lanes on that dashed lines and it made me spin 180 degrees and I faced traffic and hit the guardrail. I was only going about 55 because it was raining/snowing. Luckily I had my seatbelt on and wasnt hurt at all, but I was really shaken up. I have never been that scared in my entire life, I thought I was going to die. I'm actually still a little shaky as I write this. The car has a good amount of damage but isn't totalled and was still driveable. It took an HOUR AND A HALF for the state trooper to get there, when I was less than a mile from the station. Because I wasn't hurt at all, the injured people got first priority. On top of that, I was cited for failure to control! WTF!!! There were 3 accidents on the other side of the road before I had mine. Then there were 2 when I was driving home. When I was in the troopers car doing paper work, he told me before my accident he was with some girl i went to school with for 12 years and said she rolled her car a few miles back. I think if I can get all the police reports for that area, then I can fight it in court and say there were bad conditions. What an effing crappy weekend. Heres some pics of it all.
