Got a call from her about an hour ago. She was driving to a convienence store to pick up cat food and some snacks as she is flying out early tomorrow morning for a conference in San Diego. She was distracted by a deer on the side of the road (many where she lives) and ran a stop side and hit another car.
Her truck is fairly well damaged and she was shaken up but not physically injured. The other car was driven by a man in his 60's and his wife as she hit them in the door behind the drivers door. He was taken to hospital with chest pains (hopefully seat belt and air bag related.) I don't know if air bag deployed as she said she was going 20-25 mph. His wife was ok. This is a very familiar road for my sister. There was a witness to the entire accident-sis said something about that deer again-can't remember what though. My sister was cited for running a stop sign
A friend took her home and I advised she should take much ibuprofen as she will be really sore wants the adreniline stops. She has a colleages that are physicians and is trying to contact one who lives nearby to examine her. Sorry about the spelling as she is my twin and I'm a bit shaken by this. She will not inform our parents most likely until tomorrow as mom will really stress over this. Instead I get to be stressed out.
