It gets better, though...
"my husband started to panic. He stood there with tears in his eyes and said Īhow do we fix this?"
Ummm, get the tyre pump out? Jump leads?
But the priceless bit has to be...
"The person should at least have stopped. They would have felt it while they were driving. I know they canāt bring our dog back, but itās just common decency to say Iām really sorry, I canāt undo what Iāve done but maybe Iām more aware and know not to speed"
Yep, it's *perfectly* OK to lose control and end up on the pavement heading for people and solid stationary objects - as long as you're doing 29mph at the time...
Actually, the whole thing reeks of "bollocks" to me - if the guy (who, incidentally, is obviously complete pondlife for not stopping) managed to run the dog over on the pavement and narrowly miss the sprogs - how come they missed the parked car that they were apparently unloading the shopping from?
Could it be that the dog was in the middle of the road?
