Totalled by a Bush

This past August I got into a horrible car accident. It was a bright and sunny Saturday morning, and I was taking some back-roads in order to avoid traffic. I took a turn a little too fast, and immediately after this turn the road went downhill.
My tiny little two-door SUV skidded around on the gravel and where the road turned right, my car went left. I ramped up onto someone’s landscaping, hit a bush, and flipped my car.
Thankfully, I was okay and there was no real damage done to any property. My car, however, wasn’t so lucky and was declared totaled right on the spot. At least now I know to drive slowly on old country roads!
