The joys of being the cool Dad

I promised Timmy that he could drive the Z to school after he got his license and a B average at school. He did both and I have been living up to my promise of allowing him to drive the car, knowing the risk I was putting the car in. I called and had the car fully covered on the insurance to be safe.

It took only two weeks, but yesterday following his release from school, his first fender-bender took place. It is mostly cosmetic sheet metal along with the driver’s-front strut broken, all easily replaced. The extent of the injuries was a bitten lip and a bruised ego.

I recall my first accident; 28 days after getting my first car… a story for another day perhaps.

    That totally sucks. Good thing he was insured!

      For sure about the insurance, although the cost to fix this car is pretty tame compared to new cars. This may just give me the push to have the whole car painted fresh. Waiting on the adjuster to review the damage first.
