Today I was watching as much of a "Do Not Text and Drive" video that I could stomach, and it made me think of something I never considered in your accident. I wondered if when you crossed the center line and headed toward that car of the guy who worked at Tippins' if you noticed and tried to get back in your lane. That might better explain how you got back over and hit the truck the way you did--on the front corner if you didn't make it back over quick enough (which you didn't). At first I was thinking that there weren't any skid marks on the road, but there really wouldn't be if you didn't try to brake-if you just tried to steer back into your lane. It's possible you might not have even seen the truck coming over the hill-you just knew that you needed to get back over into your lane.
I have always questioned the other vehicle's story because how could you be so far over in the other lane but then only clip the front corner of the truck. Maybe you did try to get back over. Sweet boy. We all do it-I see people all the time drift too close to the center and then realign. Like I said, I should read the police report again.
When I think about it again though, it sounds like you were dramatically in the other lane. And I know the fact that the center line shifting a little on the other side has something to do with it. Blasted!
